A thoughtful coaching and mentoring approach can contribute significantly to the quality and effectiveness of early childhood programs, be it a child care center, family child care home, Head Start, nursery school, or other program working with children and their families. Well- designed and well-implemented coaching and mentoring approaches enhance the quality of instruction and care, and, in turn, children’s skills improve. 

This training is intended for those who want to improve their coaching and mentoring approaches, including family providers and center staff. The webinars will provide participants with practical information, strategies, and tactics to use in their early education and care practice.
