Individuals

Official transcripts are important for your membership because they:

• Allow MiRegistry to verify any degree(s); capture the number of completed credits; and classify credits into early childhood, child related, and business categories.
• Verify education and degree information to support Great Start to Quality.
• Support child care licensing consultants’ verification of education and related coursework for position qualification.
• Recognize an individual’s highest level of education and related credits to support career pathway placement.

MiRegistry requires official transcripts to prevent academic fraud and maintain the integrity of MiRegistry and its members. Requiring official transcripts is also necessary to meet national standards and best practices and enable MiRegistry to participate in national studies that benefit the early childhood and afterschool workforce.

To submit official transcripts to MiRegistry, request your college or university email (preferred) an electronic version of your official transcripts to support@miregistry.org or mail them directly to MiRegistry to our mailing address. MiRegistry only accepts unopened official transcripts in their originally sealed envelope.

The cost for official transcripts may vary. View the Official Transcripts Cost chart to see some examples of the cost of ordering your official transcripts.

If you cannot find your employer when adding employment to your individual profile, try searching by your employer’s child care license ID number if applicable. If you are still unable to find your employer, you will need to manually add details about your employer. Here’s how you can do so:

1. Under employment, you will need to select Employer Type. Select either  Employment outside the State of Michigan or employment not related to the field of early childhood or school age care OR Other Organization Types.
2. You will be asked to fill out the basic details of your employer.

To see an example, go to page 15 of the Becoming a Member support guide.
