OEC 360 Provider Portal access
The OEC 360 Provider Portal is a NEW system within the OEC.
Our new system is a mobile-friendly, easy-to-use way for you to share your plans with OEC. You can use your developing plans to help you complete and submit the Elevate Program Plan.
Log into your OEC 360 Provider Portal Account to complete your Elevate Program Plan.
An e-mail has been sent to ALL providers from “OEC Provider Sandbox” with instructions on how to access the OEC 360 Provider Portal. The e-mail went to the listed administrator of the program in the Registry. You may need to check your spam folder if it did not come to your inbox. Missed it? Request my access.
Step 2: Select your program from the dashboard
After you log in, you’ll see the dashboard.
If you don’t see your program(s) on your dashboard, click on the Connect to Your Program button.
Step 3: View summary
To create an Elevate Program Plan, click on View Summary for your selected program. This will take you to the information for that program only.
Step 4: View details for Elevate
Find the Elevate tile by clicking on the arrow in the program summary bar. Click on the View Details button under Elevate.
Step 5: Add new plan
Now, click on Add New Plan to start the process.
Step 6: Complete all of the sections
You’ll see a few sections. Click on the drop-down arrows for each one to open it and fill it out. Note that:
- If you’re a family child care provider, you’ll have to fill out 2 sections
- If you’re a child care center or group home, you’ll have to fill out 4 sections
After you finish a section, don’t forget to click save. If you don’t, your information will be lost. You can’t save a section until you complete it.
General program information (for all programs)

Create an Elevate program plan (for all programs)
This section is where you will develop your plan for growth and continuous quality improvement. Get guidance on setting SMART Goals and completing the other sections of your plan.
Program professional development plan (for center and group homes only)
This plan outlines a common goal for learning for all of the staff in your program as a team. Learn more about creating professional development plans. You’ll need to include:
- SMART Goals: Please add at least one SMART Goal to your Elevate Program Plan. You can add up to 3 SMART Goals total.
- Action steps: These are the small steps to make each goal achievable. Use bullet points here and keep it simple!
- Progress review date: Enter the date you think this goal will be achieved.
Educator Professional Development Plan (for center and group homes only)
You’re required to complete a plan for all educators in your program and keep them on file. However, you only need to submit 1 sample plan into the tool as part of your submission.
This sample plan is just for one educator in your program. It helps us understand the approach you’re taking with your staff.
- You will attest to having an Educator Professional Development Plan for each educator at your program on site by clicking the check box.
- You can download and print the Educator Professional Development Plan so all educators can complete it.
Step 7: Review your plan
Go back and review all parts of your plan before you submit.
Once you submit your Plan, it’s sent to OEC and you can’t make any more changes.
Step 8: Submit your plan
You made it! Don’t forget to hit Submit.
Please review all of the parts of your submission if you see this red banner pop up. It means you didn’t fill in a required field.
