Online training is an opportunity for educators in center based and home based programs to experience an accessible and flexible training option.  Online training is conducted according to a schedule, but there are no “live” classes to
attend. You choose the place– at home, at school– wherever you have
access to a computer and internet service.

Modules and individual sessions are taking directly from “Cradling
Literacy: Building Teachers’ Skills to Nurture Early Language and
Literacy From Birth to Five”, a resource developed in 2007 by ZERO TO THREE.

An overview of the newest Occupational Standards for Administrators will be provided through interactive discussions and activities.

Cost: THRC Members $5, Non-members $15

Deadline for registration: September 16, 2013
