A lot can change in 10 years!  People move, change jobs, get married and change their name... But some things are more constant, like our values and our commitment to the Reggio-inspired community worldwide. So if, over the course of the last 10 years, you have experienced a change of name, address, school, etc. that we might not yet be aware of, please let us know so we can update our records and continue to involve you in the dialogue!

 

Please feel free to simply reply to this message with your updates. Thank you!

    Where the Jobs Are

      

    In the field of early childhood education, there will always be certain times of the year that are hot for listing/looking for a job and other times that are less so. But we encourage you to take advantage of the NAREA JOBS SITE the next time you find yourself in need of an applicant--or a job! Here's what users have said about our service:

     

    Yes, it was definitely helpful! As a large science center, we had numerous applications for the position but I was really looking for someone whose educational philosophy aligned with ours, and the NAREA posting gave me an easy way to screen for that, as well as directed key candidates to apply for the job!

     

    We did get several responses to our ad on the website and they were teachers who were familiar with the Reggio approach. 

     

    Designed especially for Reggio-inspired settings, the NAREA JOBS SITE aims to support those seeking employment as well as those searching for job applicants. Through the NAREA JOBS SITE, we hope that positive, new connections will be established throughout our Reggio-inspired community in North America.

      

    Visit the NAREA JOBS SITE to learn about job openings in your area or to submit a job posting. New jobs are added frequently, so check back often!
