Texas Rising Star Certification Events and Sessions
All Child Care Services (CCS) regulated providers are now required to participate in Texas Rising Star. New CCS providers and current CCS providers who are not Texas Rising Star certified must achieve two-star certification by September 30, 2024. Texas Rising Star Mentors are available to support you through this process! Our mentoring team is here to help your early learning program start the journey of becoming Texas Rising Star certified!
Attend one of our community-based events in a location near you OR have a one-on-one mentor session at our office in Houston. However you decide, we are here to help you with all the required paperwork to get assessment ready in just one session!
All events and sessions are FREE to attend and open to all Directors of early learning programs in the Gulf Coast region, ready to start this assessment-ready process. If you have already participated in an enrollment session, you do not need to attend again.
Community Onboarding Events
We’re coming to a location near you for your convenience! You can work one-on-one with a mentor and interact with other colleagues going through the Texas Rising Star certification process, too. You can earn up to four (4) TECPDS Certificate Hours, and lunch will be provided! Register now for one of our community events by clicking the link below.
