Sponsored by Procare.

The past few years have taught us that we need to learn how to pivot when faced with challenges. No profession knows this better than early childhood. Early childhood professionals have pivoted to change how they do business including marketing, recruiting, and in some cases teaching. Due to the frequent changes that our profession has faced, it is important to not forget about policies and procedures. Now more than ever it is important to write policies and procedures that are relevant and current.

In this practical webinar, Beth Cannon, Key Note Speaker and Instruction Design Specialist, will discuss how to write basic policies and procedures and will spotlight policies and procedures related to tuition, cultural competence, and health. She will share examples of policies and procedures and explain how best inform families and staff of changes to policies and procedures.

In this session, you will:

• Learn how to write effective policies and procedures.
• Leave the session with understanding of fundamental topics that all early childhood program and policies should address for staff and families.
• Prepare to create policies and procedures that best fit your center.
• Leave knowing how to create stronger polices for tuition, cultural competence, and health.

All sessions are 1.5 hours long and include a brief announcement from our sponsor.
