* At least three national/federal
organizations or communities of practice that appealed to
you, and explain why you chose them.
The three national organizations
that appeal to my challenge are National Association for the Education of Young
Children (NAEYC), Zero to Three, and United States Department of Health and
Human Services. All three of these
organizations have offer support and up-to-date resources and information when
working with early childhood. All three
organizations offer publications and conference to attend for training on
current issues. These organizations have
been in my resource bank for many years, as they provide knowledge on age
ranges from zero to adolescence. The
sites keep me abreast of new information, ideas and data regarding a child’s
development.
* Job opportunities (currently available
or not) that interest you
Currently
NAEYC and Zero to Three organizations do not have any jobs available that I am
qualified for, however the jobs that were posted give me an idea of what this
organization is looking for as far as an employee. The United States Department of Health and
Human Services had several jobs that were of interest that worked with
assisting youth into adulthood and child protective service.
* Skills and experience that you would
need to competently fulfill each of these roles.
The skills and experiences needed for the
United States Department of Health and Human Services position is my current
teaching position with high school students.
Currently I teach students life and job skills to prepare them for
post-secondary life. The child
protective job training in placement services, self-protection training, and hands
on job experience in working as a social worker or educator.
Three great organizations you have listed in your blog this week. NAEYC is one of my favorites. It is full of information for educators as well as parents. I visit this site several times per week for my current job for training documents as well as information to provide to parents.
ReplyDeleteZERO TO THREE is another great website and organization. I love the information that is provided about child development. This organization has been helpful in my capstone project.
Thank you for providing these websites for further review.
NAEYC and Zero to Three are well known organizations in the Early Childhood field. I would definitely be interested in working with child protective services through United States Department of Health and Human Services. Do you know what the job qualifications are for this particular job?
