Ohio Healthy Programs

• Family Child Care must take Ohio Healthy Programs Session 1, Healthy Habits, Session 2, Healthy Menus, and Session 3, Healthy Policy.
• Program Administrators must take Ohio Healthy Programs Session 3, Healthy Policy.
• Program Cooks must take Ohio Healthy Programs Session 2, Healthy Menus. The program administrator may take Session 2, Healthy Menus if there is not a cook.
• Program Lead or Assistant Teachers must take Ohio Healthy Programs Session 1, Healthy Habits. A teacher from each age group served must attend the training.

Staff will not appear in the Staff Training for four reasons:

1) Staff do not have their role in their Employment tab.

2) Teachers do not have the age group(s) listed in their employment tab. All age groups they care for must be added for that role. If they have more than one role, additional roles can be added.

3) Only lead teachers and administrators will appear for Session 1, as that is the OHP requirement.
Only cooks and administrators will appear for Session 2, and only administrators will appear for Session 3 regardless of who else took the training. Other staff may have taken the training, but if they are not a lead teacher, administrator, or cook, they will not appear in the application since
they are not required for OHP designation.

4) Staff did not complete the training.

The Ohio Department of Health verifies online OHP trainings around the middle and end of the month. If training needs to be verified sooner so the OHP application can be submitted contact healthypromotions@occrra.org with your OPIN, name, and the training needing verified.

Access the application in your Organization Dashboard and open the Applications tab. Click on the “Notes” in the Status column. Also, click on “Edit” and then “Communication Log” for additional details, if applicable. If you have a question or want to leave a message concerning a comment in the Communication Log for the Application Review team, click “+Add Message.” Click “Resubmit Application” after edits are made.

Open the self-assessment that was attached to the email. Even though the self-assessment is in PDF format, saving it again as a PDF may resolve this. “Save As” a  PDF (*pdf) to your machine, not just “Save.” Rename the report “Summary Report.” Upload the document to the application. If this doesn’t rectify the situation contact Healthypromotions@occrra.org with your name, OPIN, and program’s license number.

You will receive an email from OCCRRA with your OHP Certificate and Congratulations letter, and you will be shipped the Rings of Fun by approximately the 15th of the following month of your designation date. The Ohio Department of Health will ship the OHP Congratulations poster for new designees and the date sticker for renewals by the end of the following month of the designation date. Dates may change based on item(s) availability.
