(1)        The operator of the child day care center or group day care home shall develop, implement and maintain a written plan for continuing education in child care.

(2)        The operator shall have documentation of continuing education as defined in section 19a-79-1a of the Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies for each staff member which shall be maintained and made available for review."
