Oklahoma Registry Information

How long does it take to process an application for the Professional Development Ladder (PDL) or Oklahoma Director's Credential (ODC)?

We are currently processing PDL and ODC applications received 01/17/2023.

Due to a staff shortage and an increase in applications, emails, faxes, and phone calls, the Oklahoma Registry is temporarily extending its processing time from 30- to 45-business days for the Oklahoma Director's Credential and Professional Development Ladder. We will return to the 30-business day processing time as soon as possible.

The Oklahoma Professional Development Registry (www.okregistry.org) is an online system that recognizes and documents professional development in the early care and education field. Through the Registry, you and your director can track your professional development. It can also assist you in creating and monitoring your individual professional development plan.

The OPDR also includes a statewide training calendar where you can search for professional development that meets your specific needs.

Go to the Oklahoma Professional Development Registry website (www.okregistry.org) to register for an account. Once you have completed the registration process, you will receive your Oklahoma Registry ID number through email. You will receive an email to verify your account and create a password. You will use this information to log into your Registry account.
