Overcoming Barriers to Protecting Children from Sexual Abuse

Participants will: a) distinguish healthy behaviors from boundary violations and pre-offending behaviors; b) practice directly addressing concerning behaviors. Individuals and communities have a strong desire to prevent child sexual abuse. However, they often face barriers to protecting children, including having relationships with those exhibiting concerning behaviors. In this workshop participants will consider what adults can do to assist communities in overcoming these common barriers to protecting children, creating safe spaces through a trauma-informed lens. This program is for teachers and care givers of children of all ages, with a particular emphasis on infants through after school. (Fulfills Act 1 Requirement)

CLASS Infant and Toddler: Learning and Language Development

During a busy day with infants and toddlers, it’s easy for routine care duties to seem overwhelming and a focus on educational needs can be difficult to maintain. Research, however, confirms that nurturing relationships and responsive interactions are the quality markers of effective learning environments for our youngest children. These interactions can occur during a variety of activities, including routine care, across settings, home or center-based. Using the lens of the CLassroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS), this training will focus on how teachers promote children’s exploration, learning, and language development in the context of relationships. Participants will examine specific CLASS indicators, explore simple ways to incorporate learning activities throughout the day, and discuss practices that foster positive growth and development for children birth to three.

Advancing as a Profession: Session 2 -Three Designations and Aligned Preparation Pathways

The route to becoming an early educator has often been confusing, too costly, and time consuming for many to achieve. Offering training that does not lead to attainment of valid ECE credentials and degrees or training that is unaffordable does an injustice to the field. In this Northern Lights-approved online real-time training, participants will deepen and extend their understanding as VTAEYC's work related to Advancing as a Recognized Profession. Vermont's Task Force continues to explore: to what extent might Vermont's early childhood workforce choose to align with the NAEYC's Unifying Framework.

Teaching for This Time: Big Issues and Little People

As much as we want childhood to be a separate and safe space, children grow and learn in the context of our rapidly changing world. Climate change, stark divisions within our country, and a global pandemic press upon children and adults alike. Come share your resources and hear from other leaders about how to cope, and teach, in this time. What are some pitfalls to avoid? What insights do older children have about the concerns and capacities of preschoolers? What can educators do now to prepare children to live in the world they will inherit? How young children learn to interact with the natural world, care for themselves and others, and solve problems has big implications for our families, communities, and our ecosystem. This frank discussion will occur over two sessions: Session 1: What preschoolers bring to the challenge in a changing world Session 2: How adults can build on preschoolers’ strengths in a changing world

Sustaining High-Quality Interactions with Infants and Toddlers during COVID-19

Due to COVID-19, the Vermont Department of Health has intensified hygiene requirements and placed restrictions on many common early childhood practices. While we know these changes are necessary in order to help keep everyone healthy and safe, the added responsibilities can feel burdensome during an already busy day. You may wonder how to fulfil all of these increased health expectations, and still provide infants and toddlers with a variety of learning experiences. This training will explore ways to sustain positive interactions, closeness, and essential learning moments with infants and toddlers during these times of masking and never-ending cleaning chores. The authors of the CLassroom Assessment Scoring System (CLASS) and the Infant/Toddler Environmental Rating Scale (ITERS) have responded to the pandemic, and offer recommendations for sustaining high-quality interactions and practices during these times. We will discuss these recommendations, and share ideas that help minimize challenges and promote enriching experiences during this pandemic.
