CFD Approved Pathway Providers

If you are interested in becoming an AIFD Education Partner with the ultimate goal of having your school approved as a Pathway provider, please go to AIFD's Education Partners page and complete the application form. It may take up to thirty days for your school to be approved by the appropriate committee and notified.

If your State Certification program is interested in becoming approved as an AIFD Pathway Provider, please download the application form and return it to AIFD Headquarters for approval. It may take up to thirty days for your organization to be approved by the appropriate committee and notified.

Having your school or certification program approved by AIFD as an approved PFDE Pathway Provider means your organization will be listed as an approved provider on the AIFD website. Any prospective AIFD member looking to fulfill a PFDE Pathway will be directed to visit these lists and your organizations will directly benefit from this exposure for being an approved pathway provider.  

Note: Hovering over the flowers will provide you with more information on the Pathway Provider.
