All News & StoriesWe hope you’ve been hearing all about I-LEAD, the Office of Early Childhood and Out-of-School Learning’s new online tool, designed for child care providers just like you. I-LEAD, short for the Indiana Licensing & Education Access Depot, is designed to make licensing, background checks and professional development easier to access and update.
We here at Child Care Answers have been learning more about it since it launched July 9, just like you have. We want to make sure you have the best and most up-to-date information…and this post is a great place to start! As time goes on, we’ll continue to refine our knowledge and get answers to your questions. Keep checking back!

I’M A PROVIDER ADMIN. CAN I TRACK WHICH OF MY EDUCATORS RECEIVED AN INVITE?
Provider Admins can track the educator invites they trigger in I-LEAD by following these steps:
- Find the educator you want to track in your listing of educators.
- Click View Details next to his/her name.
- Find the Invite Status option. This shows both the status of the invite and how many times it’s been sent.
You can also resend the invite from this screen; the email can be updated when that option is used.
WHERE DO EDUCATORS ACCESS THEIR CONSENT FORMS?
The consent form is visible in the upper right hand corner – only AFTER a provider admin adds the educator to the Associated Educator list. If you don’t see your consent form, connect with your program’s admin to ensure you’re correctly associated with your program.
You’ll also notice in the screenshot above that provider admins can switch views to see the educators they manage and the providers they work for.
I CREATED MY ACCOUNT AND PASSWORD. IS IT GOING TO EXPIRE AFTER A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS?
No. As of now, you can keep your same password until you want to change it again.
