Early Childhood Education is a profession of learning; learning how to guide and support young children; learning how to lead programming and curriculum; learning how to lead a center; learning how to best support families. That list could go on and on about learning how to do something, but have you considered how to develop and nurture the learning culture at your center?

Program or classroom culture is the set of fundamental beliefs, values, and assumptions that the staff, families, and children share. Positive program culture is critical for helping young children feel safe, trusted, trusting, included and inclusive so they are free to explore and learn. Join Kelly Hansinger and Melony Gibson from Bright Horizons Family Solutions as they walk you through the steps to facilitate positive learning culture in every classroom through modeling, coaching, and mentoring. You will learn how to define or redefine your center’s learning culture, develop orientation plans for new staff, and grow your team to be ‘stars where they are!’

In this inspiring session, you will learn to:

• Define what a learning culture is and the identify it’s benefits to your team and to the program.
• Understand and implement andragogy – turning adult learning principles and practices into professional development opportunities.
• Evaluate your orientation program and resources to best prepare new educators.
• Begin to create a learning pathway for your team.
