Professional Development Workshops Improve the Quality of Early Care and Education
We offer a variety of workshops to support educators and leaders in deepening their understanding of early care and education topics while receiving Pathways-approved professional development clock hours. We also offer customized professional development workshops for all program types.
Current Workshops
Our workshops help educators and leaders build their skills in CLASS, developmentally appropriate practices, curriculum and assessment, and so much more. We offer Lunch & Learns, evening sessions, and Saturday seminars, allowing educators and leaders to receive Pathways-approved professional development clock hours on their own schedules. Additionally, many of our workshops are held virtually.
