Becoming a professional
Students prepared in early childhood degree programs identify and conduct themselves as members of the early childhood profession. They know and use ethical guidelines and other professional standards related to early child hood practice. They are continuous, collaborative learners who demonstrate knowledgeable, reflective, and critical perspectives on their work, making informed decisions that integrate knowledge from a variety of sources. They are informed advocates for sound educational practices and policies. Programs seeking NAEYC Accreditation or Recognition must provide field experiences in at least two of these three early childhood age groups (0-3, 3-5, 5-8) and in at least two of these three early learning settings (P-12 schools, child care centers and homes, Head Start).
This is proof of my High Quality Teaching in Practice training that I did at Educare for my Teaching Profession II class. I believe it belongs under the NAEYC standard 5 because it shows my completion of a training on how to give students the best I possibly can while they are in my class.

This is a copy of my MRTQ Registry certification. I received this upon graduating high school. I am identified as a Center Based Professional and can continue to take classes to receive higher certification.
