NAEYC Standards for Professional Development Programs
The new NAEYC Standards for Professional Development Programs is now posted on the NAEYC web site. http://www.naeyc.org/positionstatements/ppp
The standards are used across degree levels, from associate to baccalaureate to graduate programs. They are used in higher education accreditation systems, in state policy development, and in program improvement planning. A summary of significant changes from the 2003 standards, along with an implementation timeline for NCATE and ECADA accreditation, is included.
NAEYC will hold an invitational meeting at the fall conference for those who have questions about how the new standards will be implemented in NCATE accreditation work.

Arizona Immigration Law protest letter sent to:

Letter to the Editor
The National Association of Early Childhood Teacher Educators held it’s semi-annual meeting at the Sheraton hotel in Phoenix last week only because there was no time to change the site after the new Arizona immigration law was announced. Our association will not meet in Arizona again as long as this discriminatory policy is in place.
As college professors preparing teachers for early childhood education, our members support a climate of trust and safety for all children and their families. We are appalled at the racial and ethnic profiling inherent in Arizona’s immigration law and consider it irresponsible.
