Early Childhood Education and Care

Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) is a continuum of learning and support activities designed to prepare individuals for work with and on behalf of young children and their families, as well as ongoing experiences to enhance this work. These opportunities lead to improvements in the knowledge, skills, practices, and dispositions of early education professionals.

Well-educated, well-trained professionals are the key factor in providing high-quality ECEC with the most favorable cognitive and social outcomes for children. Research shows that the behavior of those who work in ECEC matters and that this is related to their education and training. Education systems need to invest in intensive teacher education and training if teachers are to deliver high-quality outcomes.

TTS's ECEC training is designed to enhance the quality care of infant, toddler, pre-k, and care providers; to identify and explore effective evidence-based strategies and methodologies; to minimize early risk factors and enhance early childhood education through the review of early learning standard guidelines. In addition, to the best practices and principles reflected in today's quality educational settings.
