In some cases, for annual state credit, you will need to submit the certificate to the appropriate registry and they may or may not award annual credit. ​​Providing a State Registry number to us does not guarantee that your state will approve the training for annual continuing education credit. ​​​​Many states have QRIS systems that require specific courses to be completed for annual or in-service training. Do not enroll in this course for the purpose of completing a state specific mandated course without first verifying exactly what course requirements need to be met. 
14. For Washington State students, completed courses are recorded in MERIT Monday through Friday, throughout the day continuously, between 8 am and 3 PM. If you complete your training in the evening or over the weekend, it will be recorded on the next business day during those hours.
15. During the last two weeks of December, expect longer processing times for enrollment and certificates due to the high volume of enrollments and completed trainings during the year end rush.  We recommend enrolling and completing your training prior to the end of December whenever possible.
16. Enrollment expires in 1 year from the date of payment ​for all courses, with the exception of the Child Care Basics.
