About this webinar
Join Debi Mathias, from the BUILD initiative, in this powerful webinar to learn more about effective processes for managing and implementing QRIS, licensing, and accreditation. Debi will help you explore ideas about how to use regulations to create a culture of continuous quality improvement (CQI) and reflective practice within your program.
You will learn strategies that will help you:
leverage lessons learned from other disciplines about CQI and the elements of a strong CQI plan and process.
juggle multiple program requirements and regulations, while attending to the other pressing priorities like program operations and teacher development.
strategically evaluate multiple sources of evidence and prioritize components of the CQI plan.
identify challenges and develop strategies to engage your team to implement program improvement strategies.
Essentially, this webinar will help you make friends with QRIS, licensing, and accreditation processes, form a respect for CQI, and make your program more effective for the children and families it serves.
