When you join the OpenStaff network, you are regarded as an Independent Contractor, not an employee. This means that you will receive a 1099 Tax Form each year, which the government will require you to pay your own income tax (i.e. self-employment tax).
OpenStaff can not guarantee a certain number of hours as the workflow is given by the number of substitute requests submitted by the institutions on the network.
Unfortunately, no. The Child Care Licensing Department requires that all employees working at a licensed facility must complete a hands-on?Pediatric CPR & First Aid certification every two years.
There are plenty of resources online, however if you google CPR certification near me?or Child Care Training Courses,?you will find a great variety of options. We have no restrictions or preferences, just as long as the provider is duly accredited, and that the Pediatric CPR also includes First Aid.
We will be continuously adding helpful information to our Resources for Teachers section on our website.
No, not to get started! With that said, the Child Care Licensing Department requires that every employee completes 24 clocked hours of training within every 12 months of employment.
