Child Development Permit Stipends
The Child Development Training Consortium (CDTC) is updating the 2026–2027 Permit Stipend application process. Eligible applicants will be reimbursed for permit application fees paid online directly to the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC). Applicants should submit their online permit application through the CTC, pay the required fee, and retain their official CTC payment receipt. Once 2026–2027 funding is available, eligible applicants may apply for reimbursement by submitting their official CTC payment receipt with their CDTC Permit Stipend application. Thank you for your patience as we finalize these updates.
Child Development Permit Stipend Applications are now closed for the 2024-2025 Program Year. Please check back in July 2025 for updates on the 2025-2026 application.
