SUMMARY:NAEYC Quality Assessment & Accreditation System Community of Practice - Recognition Tier (Daytime)
DESCRIPTION:NAEYC Accreditation has long set the national standard for high-quality early learning programs. Accreditation signals to families\, educators\, and policymakers that a program prioritizes high-quality learning experiences and continuous improvement.\nNAEYC has redesigned its Quality Assessment & Accreditation System to better support early learning programs on their path to high-quality early education. The Early Learning Program Quality Assessment and Accreditation System now offers a more inclusive\, flexible\, and streamlined model that reflects the realities of today’s early learning landscape. This new system is more accessible to all program types and aligned with best practices.\nPrograms who are interested in diving into the updated NAEYC program standards and aligning their program policies and procedures are invited to join this Community of Practice. Together we will walk through the steps to preparing a NAEYC Recognized application\, the first tier in the new Quality Assessment & Accreditation System. By the end of this CoP\, programs will have a grounded understanding of the baseline value of NAEYC program standards and how building a foundation of quality is essential for high-quality early learning experiences and environments. \nDates & Times: Tuesday\, April 21\, 2026\, 1:00PM-2:30PM \nTuesday\, May 19\, 2026\, 1:00PM-2:30PM \nTuesday\, June 16\, 2026\, 1:00PM-2:30PM \nTuesday\, July 14\, 2026\, 1:00PM-2:30PM \nTrainer:  Julie Buechler \nLocation: Zoom \nClick Here to Register

SUMMARY:Hartford ECPN: A Beginner’s Guide to Using AI in ECE Programs
DESCRIPTION:This session is a hands-on introduction for early childhood education (ECE) professionals who are new to artificial intelligence (AI) or have experimented with it a bit. We’ll move slowly\, with step-by-step guidance\, and you’ll practice using leading AI tools on real ECE tasks\, including family and staff communication\, activity and lesson planning support\, and basic operations that can save you time. You’ll learn how to direct an AI tool so it produces useful work\, and how to refine and verify the results so you can use them with confidence. We’ll also build simple habits that protect privacy and reduce errors. This session is best for participants who are comfortable using email and web browsers. \nYou will need a laptop or tablet for this training. Smart phones are not recommended for use in this session. You’ll leave with a basic understanding of the power and risks associated with the use of AI tools\, along with a basic skill set to use this technology effectively. A resource list for continued practice and learning will be provided. Lunch will be provided. \nDate & Time: April 25\, 2026\, 8:00AM-3:00PM \nTrainers:  Bill Hudson \nLocation:  DHMC Conference Center \nClick Here to Register

SUMMARY:Burlington South Network: Temperament-Focused Approaches to Challenging Behavior
DESCRIPTION:Each of us has a unique\, innate style that informs how we see and interact with the world. Understanding these differences can give us insight into behaviors we find challenging in others. This training will offer a framework for understanding what drives behavior and how adults can use this insight to support all children in a diverse classroom. We will learn about different temperament types and identify the strengths and challenges of each. Participants will learn practical strategies for observing temperament\, adapting environments\, and responding to challenging behaviors in ways that honor each child’s individual differences. We will also reflect on how our own temperament impacts our approach and discuss strategies for increasing the “goodness of fit” in our relationships. \nThis is a Burlington South Network Training. If you are interested in joining the Burlington South Network\, please select the appropriate option within the question: “Are you a member of the Burlington South Network?” \nDate & Time: April 29\, 2026\, 6:00PM-8:00PM \nTrainers: Aricha Drury \nLocation: Zoom \nClick Here to Register

SUMMARY:Central VT ECE Networking Event
DESCRIPTION:Connection is essential for early childhood educators. Resilience is not something we build alone\, but something that grows through relationships\, shared experiences\, and the support we offer one another along the way. Even in the midst of a challenging day\, joy can be found\, in laughter\, in small moments of connection\, and in the collective energy of people coming together with purpose. Rooted in the Strengthening Families framework\, this free professional development gathering offers time to build meaningful social connections and recharge alongside peers.\nJoin us for an evening of connection and learning with fellow early childhood educators in a supportive and collaborative space. There will be food\, a take‑home craft\, and other meaningful offerings to support your work and wellbeing. We’re thrilled to welcome April Zajko\, a nature‑based Early Childhood Educator\, who will share thoughtful reflections and inspiration. Participants will leave with practical ways to deepen relationships\, access support\, and contribute to communities where connection\, resilience\, and joy are shared and sustained. \nLight refreshments will be provided. \nClick here to view the networking event flyer \nDate & Time: May 1\, 2026\, 6:00PM-8:00PM \nTrainers:  Arianna Van Houten\, April Zajko \nLocation: Barre\, VT \nClick Here to Register

SUMMARY:Addison Network Training: Speech and Language Development for Young Children
DESCRIPTION:This two-hour workshop with a speech-language pathologist (SLP) provides an overview of how speech and language skills develop in young children\, highlighting key milestones from infancy through the early childhood years.

SUMMARY:Nature Based Early Childhood Educators Community of Practice
DESCRIPTION:Are you currently operating a nature-based program\, or ready to grow one? Whether you are refining your outdoor practices or just beginning to imagine what’s possible\, this Community of Practice (CoP) is designed to support you with clarity and confidence.\nDeveloping a deep connection to nature is foundational in early childhood\, and Vermont educators have been learning outdoors with children\, through the seasons\, for decades. This shared philosophy unites us\, while allowing space for creativity\, innovation\, and growth.\nTogether\, we will learn from one another\, from experienced guest speakers\, and from the natural world itself. We will explore topics such as health and safety\, seasonal rhythms\, advocacy\, and program design. Participants in the community of practice will get to participate in a series of four in-person visits to a variety of settings\, including a public school UPK program\, Family Child Care program\, and Center-Based programs so participants will see nature-based early learning environments in a variety of contexts.\nA Community of Practice is built on relationships and shared commitment. The hope is that participants can attend most of the sessions to strengthen our experience. Our CoP will be a hybrid model consisting of 6 sessions\, 2 virtual and 4 in person at various locations in Washington\, Orange\, Chittenden\, and Caledonia counties. Visiting other programs offers inspiration\, practical insight\, and the opportunity to reflect on your own next steps. This Community of Practice will inspire you with ideas and build your confidence in how you move forward to implement the program you envision. \nDates\, Times\, & Locations: \nSession 1: Zoom\, Wednesday\, May 20\, 2026\, 6:00PM-8:00PM \nSession 2: Bradford\, VT\, Saturday\, June 13\, 2026\, 10:00AM-12:30PM \nSession 3: Hinesburg\, VT\, Saturday\, July 11\, 2026\, 10:00AM-12:30PM \nSession 4: Graniteville\, VT\, Saturday\, August 8\, 2026\, 10:00AM-12:30PM \nSession 5: St Johnsbury\, VT\, Saturday\, September 19\, 2026\, 10:00AM-12:30PM \nSession 6: Zoom\, Wednesday\, October 7\, 2026\, 6:00PM-8:00PM \nTrainers:  Arianna Van Houten\, April Zajko \nClick Here to Register
