The training for substitutes and unsupervised volunteers is not required to be of a minimum length. For purposes of this subdivision, "child development and learning training" means any training in Knowledge and Competency Area I: Child Development and Learning, which is training in understanding how children develop physically, cognitively, emotionally, and socially and learn as part of the children's family, culture, and community. Minnesota Statutes, section 142B.65, subdivision 3. Your Response. You stated that the lack of trainings in this winter caused you to miss the training deadlines. Reconsideration Determination. The Licensor noted that SP2 and SP4 failed to complete the required two hours of child and development and learning training requirements within 90 days of employment. As of the site visit, SP2 had not completed the required two hours of child and development and learning training requirements within 90 days of employment. SP2’s Orientation Training Record did not show that SP2 had completed two hours of child and development and learning training requirements within 90 days of employment. Citation 7 is affirmed regarding SP2 failing to complete the required child and development and learning training requirements. SP4 date of hire was October 16, 2025.

Disposition The Commissioner has reviewed the relevant laws and all the information you submitted in response to the Correction Order. Citation 7 is affirmed. You did not request review for Citations 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Citations 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are not under the scope of review. This is a final agency decision. Previously Ordered Corrective Action. In the original Correction Order issued, you were ordered to correct the violation(s) cited, and submit documentation of such action to your licensor. A request for reconsideration does not stay any provisions or requirements of the correction order. Minnesota Statutes, 142B.16, subdivision 1, paragraph (a). If you have not done so already, please immediately comply with the previously ordered corrective actions for all uncontested and affirmed violations and respond in the Provider Hub immediately. The Commissioner appreciates your response and encourages you to continue to work cooperatively with your licensor to ensure the safety and well-being of the children you serve. Sincerely,
