Association for Childhood Education International (ACEI)
ACEI is a charitable organization committed to advocate for
access to education, equity in educational settings, quality educational subject
matter, and the child's right to education. The organization appealed to me
because of their campaign “Love Me, Teach Me” which promotes the needs and
rights for children across the world. They
believe in four cornerstones: See Me, Hear Me, Love Me, and Teach Me. ACEI
believe focusing on these foundations will improve the well-being of every
child.

International Step by Step Association
International Step by Step Association connects
professionals and organizations working in the field of early childhood
development and education. I like this association because it promotes equal
access to quality early childhood education for all children around the world.
The association offers information about training services for early childhood
professionals, and host events that support the healthy development of children.
Also provide online training and may of the courses are free. The website has a
bookstore with children books from various cultures. This organization has a
wealth of useful resources!
Hello Katara,
ReplyDeleteThe International Step by Step Association was amazing right? It is nice that they offer free trainings for their members. The resources are plentiful just as you stated. It is definitely an organization that I am going to add to my collection. I am really considering joining this organization.
ACEI is an interesting organization as well. The cornerstones are touching for sure. I would love to work for a company that is so dedicated to the overall well being of children and their families.
Where is that particular job located?
Katara,
ReplyDeleteACEI sounds like a fascinating organization. I will have to look more into what they do. The position you posted for them sound like something that could be done at home. I wonder if they allow telecommuting. This would be a fun second job.
It would be so rewarding to work for many of these companies. However, I also feel that in anything we do we must find the position within our field where we can do the most good. Each of us has our own gifts and passions for this field.
Hi Katara, "Love me teach me"- I like that one too. The "quality educational subject matter" really rings a bell with me. I like that ACEI mentions this aspect specifically. Young children are so sensitive. It has never been good enough to simply implement any kind of child care to young children. Poor quality childcare is actually hurtful to children... just a much as high quality childcare is beneficial to young children. Thanks for the great post!
