Child Development Permit
Child Development Permit
The Child Development Permit is issued by the State of California, Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC). The permit is not required by Title 22 licensed schools, but government funded schools do require it (Head Start, LAUP, college campus programs, state funded preschools). The permit is valuable and the positions that require the permit, tend to have a higher pay rate.
