MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — A new online tool has been launched to streamline Wisconsin child care licensing.
Governor Tony Evers and the Wisconsin Department of children and families say it will cut licensing processing times in half, making it easier for people to start licensed or certified childcare programs. Evers and the department hope that will help bolster the childcare industry in Wisconsin by making the licensing process more accessible.
The tool includes a new interactive webpage and an online licensing application.
Until this year, child care license applications were required to be submitted exclusively via hard copy.
