Early Care Management Training

 Directing a child care center is a complex and demanding job. Directors must have an in-depth

 understanding of how to provide children with high quality, developmentally appropriate early care and

 learning experiences. At the same time, they must master an array of skills needed to operate their

 centers efficiently. Supported by the New York State Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS),

 the Early Care & Learning Council's Early Care Management Training Project provides training and

 technical assistance designed to help center directors meet these challenges. Now in its 16th year, the

 Project offers workshops to directors throughout New York State.
