Add or Change an Employer

It’s easy to add your employer to your individual account. It is important to many employers and makes relicensing much easier for everyone. If your program is participating in Bright & Early ND, you will need to identify your employer.

How do I add employment to my account? 

If you do not have Registry membership:

  1. Log in to your Registry account.
  2. Check Become a member and then click the Apply/Renew button.
  3. Complete each section of the membership profile and “Save and Continue” for each section.
  4. Under the Employment section, click “Edit” and then “Add Position”.
    • Select North Dakota Regulated Child Care and Education if you work in a child care program, including family and self-declared.
    • Select North Dakota Professional or Local/State Agency if you work for a training, government or support agency.
    • Use your program’s Registry organization ID# to look up your employer. You can also search for your employer by name, city, DHHS license number, or tribal affiliation. TIP: If you are using a DHHS license number, do not use any spaces or dashes. Example: 12345678A
    • Select Search or use the enter key on your keyboard. You may need to scroll down to the results.
    • When you find your employer, click on the name and then “confirm”.
    • Add your position and your start date. Select “Save and Continue”.
      5. Complete the rest of the membership profile and Submit at the end.

If you are a Current Registry Member:

If your Registry Membership is Expired:

  • Log in to your account and check “Renew your membership” and then “Apply/Renew”.
  • Add your Employment as in Step 4 above.

If your membership application is already in process, your account will be read-only. That means you cannot make any changes or additions. You will need to wait until it has been processed or you can call the Registry for assistance.
