Access to Online Courses
We know that everyone learns differently, and we also understand that life is full of responsibilities pulling us in different directions. If you work in a child-facing role, it's tough to make it to professional development workshops during the day or after a long day of work. That’s why we’re excited to offer three different self-paced materials that allow COAEYC members to learn on their own schedule. Whether you’re fitting in some study time during a break or dedicating a quiet weekend to your growth, these resources are here to support you in balancing your personal and professional life. Access to these resources is available by request and spaces for each option below are limited, but we will do our very best to communicate when spaces are full.
These are free for COAEYC members and are not open to the public. Space is limited.
