Recruit, Train and Retain:
The Professional Development Toolkit
The Early Childhood Education Association has developed a CD with information on recruiting (free sites as well as some companies which will help you recruit); interviewing (lots of great questions designed specifically for each of these categories: directors, lead teachers, and assistant teachers); hiring, training opportunities, evaluation and documentation.
This CD is a great resource with sample interview questions, job descriptions, orientation checklist, evaluation, and documentation forms. In addition it contains information on hiring and firing from the law firm of Ireland Stapleton Pryor and Pascoe.
The Early Childhood Education Association is offering this CD to our members at the discounted price of $24.99; the non-member price of $49.99. Please contact the office at 303-860-7174 or info@coloradoecea.org for your copy - a must-have resource for every owner, director and administrator!
