Upcoming Curriculum Training Opportunities
Beyond Cribs & Rattles

The Early Learning Coalition is excited to offer two training opportunities to assist School Readiness providers in implementing new curricula at their child care site. Next month, the Coalition is offering Beyond Cribs & Rattles and Beyond Centers & Circle Time trainings for FREE! These courses are designed to provide an introduction and overview of the curricula framework for providers. In addition, providers that attend these trainings will receive the curriculum books for FREE ($50.00 value each).
