Center for the Study of Child Care Employment

This past spring, CSCCE Director, Dr. Marcy Whitebook, delivered two presentations at the National Center for Research on Early Child Education's Quality Improvement Meeting. In both Taking Stock: The Early Childhood Higher Education Inventory and Supportive Environmental Quality Underlying Adult Learning in Early Childhood Settings, Marcy discusses the complex interaction among early childhood teacher preparation programs, early care and education workplace environments, and assistance for ongoing teacher learning. She presented new tools developed by the CSCCE designed to inform policy development and quality improvement planning: one focuses on the early childhood higher education landscape and the other on work environments that support teachers practice and development.

The videos of each are linked above and posted on the CSCCE website. The full meeting agenda and all speaker's presentations are available on the NCRECE website.
