  • 1.  NAEYC Virtual Institute!

    Posted 06-14-2020 12:43 PM
    I am beyond excited about the NAEYC Virtual Institute! My center reopened two weeks ago, so things have been a little crazy; I am just now getting around to the Virtual Institute presentations (yay!). However, there are SO many options and they all look amazing... I don't know where to start! Which presentations have you watched? What's been your favorite so far? Which ones are must watch? 
    Thanks so much for your input! I am so ready to dive in!

    I too have been looking forward to the virtual institute ever since PLI was cancelled.  I haven't had the chance to start attending sessions yet.  Does anyone know how long these will be available on NAEYC website?  I haven't seen any date for ending and I want to make sure that I get a chance to do several of these before they pull the information off the website.

    Check with your state to see if these are acceptable Professional Development.  not accepted in VT.

    All sessions are accepted in Missouri for PD credit. We have to upload and submit them manually.

    Hi. I was very excited about virtual learning on NAEYC. I took STEM because I moved from Toddlers to preschool. It not only was informative itt reminded me of things I knew.

    Can I recommend the emergent handwriting practices/skills session by Vicki Gibson? It was amazing! 

    Also - for those wondering about being accepted in your state. DE is being weird about it. It counts for our basic licensing requirements, and only up to 6 hours can count towards our QRIS points.......
