Certified Child Development Associate Trainer Services

The City of Savannah, Georgia, requires a qualified vendor to provide certified Child Development Associate (CDA) trainer services. The agency is seeking to train a minimum of 100 income-eligible participants to assist them in completing their CDA Portfolio or Resource File, classroom observations, and the national examination. This initiative aims to help participants meet the required 120 hours of professional development through structured, high-quality instruction. The selected vendor must deliver 120 hours of CDA instruction divided into three instructional units for each cohort, focusing on the six CDA Competency Standards established by the Council for Professional Recognition. The scope of work includes developing a curriculum supported by detailed lesson plans based on these six competency standards. Additionally, the vendor must provide all training guides, resource materials, and official CDA competency books to the participants. The vendor is responsible for hiring and managing qualified instructors or trainers who possess the necessary skills and knowledge to implement the CDA training. The agency requires the vendor to conduct and complete background checks on all hired trainers before the start of any training sessions. All instructional services and project work must be performed onsite in Savannah, Georgia. Only onshore organizations based in the United States are eligible to submit proposals for this opportunity. The agency has not disclosed a specific budget and is currently seeking proposals to determine the cost of the services. The solicitation documents do not specify key dates, so interested parties must monitor the agency's procurement portal for deadlines and submission schedules.
