  • Early Childhood Education Leadership Development Program

    Childcare centres depend on strong leadership to provide a supportive, encouraging, and motivating environment for their team of ECEs, ECAs, apprentices, and volunteers.  Supervisors, Managers and Directors have a multi-faceted and complex role in their institution.  Besides being responsible for the health and wellness of the children under the care of their centre, they also must support, encourage, and motivate their staff.  They perform administrative, financial, regulatory, and marketing roles while also working with parents, hiring, pedagogy, community-engagement, and other duties.  

    In Ontario, the only legislated requirement for leadership positions in childcare is that supervisors, managers, and directors must have an ECE diploma and two-years of experience.  Trained ECEs may become supervisors, managers, and directors through experience in a child-care centre but are not required to have administrative or leadership training. 

    The ECE Leadership Development program is designed for private or public child-care centres that are interested in investing in the development of their leadership team.  In consultation with university experts, centres select courses from a list of courses from Management, Communications and Not-for-Profit University Certificate programs that meet their training needs.  Prior to delivering the training, instructors will consult with the centres to customize the content of the pre-existing courses (up to 20%).  Industry leading Leadership Development courses are therefore adapted not only to the needs of ECEs in general but to the specific requirements of the individual center.
