Programs for center-based staff are offered by Louise Child Care, a private, non-profit organization headquartered in Pittsburgh and providing courses primarily in the western part of the state, and Marywood College, located in Scranton and providing courses primarily in eastern Pennsylvania. Training programs for school-age child care staff are offered by the Pennsylvania School-Age Child Care Project throughout the state. Training for home-based care providers is offered by the Keystone University Research Corporation in Erie and the Better Kid Care Project in University Park, both of which offer state-wide training. The Early Childhood Education Linkage System operates a toll-free hotline for child care staff who need advice about health and safety issues, and also publishes a quarterly newsletter on this topic.
