Accreditation
Accreditation
provides early childhood professionals with nationally recognized standards
for high quality care and education. Accreditation is a professional,
voluntary self-study program.
Check
yourself:
- Does your
program strive to work beyond the minimum state licensing standards
for staff training and staff/child ratios?
- Do you
(and staff) have Early Childhood Credentials such as TECTA
training, CDA Credential, Associates Degree or an Education or Business
Degree?
- Do parents
participate in your program?
- Does your
program operate based on written policies to govern the program,
staff, and parents?
- Are you a Tennessee
licensed Center or Family Day Home?
If you
can answer "YES" to most of these questions, then you may be
already exceeding state licensing and be ready to seek National
Accreditation for your high-quality childcare program!
If you
are interested in more information, call 615-898-5603.
