Finding Approved Infant Safe Sleep Training

To find approved infant safe sleep training, go to www.okregistry.org. The web page should open to the Statewide Training Calendar. (If it opens to the Trainer Directory, click on Find Training.)

• Search for training by entering the words "safe sleep" in the Keywords field and selecting “Formal” from the Training Type drop-down box. Then click on the Locate Events button. (To include online training in your search, click the box that says "Web Based, Self-Paced in the section "Include the following course types." To include webinars, click the box thats says "Web Based, with Scheduled Sessions."

• Check the event DESCRIPTION to be sure the training meets the safe sleep DHS licensing requirement (see note below).

• You can use the other fields, such as From Date, To Date, and/or City or County, to narrow your search for classroom courses.

• If you are only interested in online training, unclick all the course type boxes at the bottom except “Web Based, Self-Paced” before clicking the Locate Events button. To include webinars, click the box thats says "Web Based, with Scheduled Sessions."

• Once you have selected a training, follow the instructions provided in the event information to enroll.

• New events will be added on an ongoing basis.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Most, but NOT ALL, of the courses that come up in your search will count for the safe sleep DHS licensing requirement. When you click on the course title for more information on a specific course, look for a statement at the bottom of the Description that says "*This training meets the Child Care Services-Licensing requirement for safe sleep training." If it has this statement, it meets the requirement. If it does not have this statement, it has not been approved as meeting the requirement.
