Yes, the intent of the proposed and interim rule was to clarify and strengthen the training requirements for sponsored facilities (that is, any type of sponsored center and all family day care homes). We knew that all types of independent centers and sponsors were already receiving training prior to participation, as a result of the pre-approval visit requirements at 7 CFR Part 226.6(b)(1).

Therefore, when the interim rule amended the regulations pertaining to the training of various types of entities participating in CACFP [at 7 CFR Parts 226.17(b)(9), 226.18(b)(2), 226.19(b)(6), and 226.19a(b)(11)], no attempt was made to differentiate between sponsored and independent child care centers, outside-school-hours care centers, and adult day care centers. • Is there a minimum number of training hours required by the regulations? No, there is no minimum or maximum number of hours req
