With the support of the Government of Alberta and in partnership with the Palix Foundation, the Association of Early Childhood Educators of Alberta (AECEA) is excited to provide early childhood educators (ECEs) with an opportunity for continued professional learning on the scientific underpinnings of early brain development and the important role ECEs play in brain development in the early years.
ECEs who have completed the Brain Story Certification can participate in the Theory-to-Practice Series facilitated by the Alberta Resource Centre for Quality Enhancement (ARCQE) designed specifically for ECEs to connect the theory and ideas presented in the Brain Story to their daily practice, interactions, and relationships with children and families.
For more information, and to register for an available series, click here.
Upon completing the sessions, ECEs will be reimbursed for 10 hours of time. Hours DO NOT count towards the Release Time Funding grant from the Alberta Child Care Grant Funding Program; reimbursement comes from AECEA, not from the Alberta Child Care Grant Funding Program.
