Professional Development Information

Nothing has a greater impact on the quality of care for young children than the education of the child care provider.  Anybody who has ever tried to teach or take care of children knows it’s not easy!  The knowledge, skills and patience learned through college coursework and workshops/conferences helps us transform ho-hum experiences into marvelous and magical learning adventures.   Once we unlock and understand what children can do, we open unlimited possibilities.

A written Registration Form and fee payment (if applicable) are required by the registration deadline for each workshop unless otherwise noted.  Registration ends at 5:00 p.m. on the registration deadline date.  For Registration Forms, click on the link below
