Most early childhood educators believe professional development is essential in ensuring young children receive quality and impactful educational experiences. Likewise, centres value the current research on young children’s intellectual, social and physical growth, and aspire to incorporate this research into their centre’s pedagogy and mission. 

In reality, there is little time in an educator’s day for professional development and centre’s struggle to find funding for costly PD opportunities. Getting past these two major obstacles to PD is possible with Educa.

Educa offers free webinars to early childhood educators. 

A variety of subjects are covered including learning stories, family engagement, and personal growth. You can watch a webinar in real-time and participate in the discussion with the presenter, or watch a replay of a webinar at your leisure. 

In both cases, Educa offers participants a certificate of participation for their records or requirements. 

Useful, inspiring, and short in length, Educa articles are a perfect focus for teacher meeting discussions. 

Educators can also use Educa articles as a prompt for their own teaching reflections in their teaching portfolios. Educators can even comment and engage in discussion right on the site!
