Last week, DCYF launched the Staff Qualifications Workgroup, which will meet monthly to reach consensus on reasonable teacher qualification requirements for early learning educators. The subcommittee includes 10 early learning providers and 10 provider advocates, including WFIS, to ensure a diverse and representative discussion. The meetings are being led by Tiffany Lee, DCYF’s Senior Administrator for Workforce Growth and Professional Development.

WFIS is committed to keeping you informed about the progress of this work. We will share updates via our newsletter and also host ongoing conversations on Zoom every Thursday at noon.
