You are required to have 120 hours of training in the 6 Competency areas. The process is somewhat complex and involves a lot more than classwork. See if the Early Childhood Education folks at the college can help you, or check with the local child care resources agency can help you. Also go to cdacouncil.org to learn the specific requirements.
