Feeling uncertain or overwhelmed by the changes (current and future) in the Early Years sector in British Columbia? In this 2-hour session, we will explore some key changes:
- BC Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples;
- BC Early Learning Framework;
- New provincial mandates (including integration of early care and learning under Ministry of Education); and
- New federal commitments to establishing a Canada-wide Early Learning & Child Care System.
What do these changes, mandates and commitments mean to individuals, programs, and/or to the entire sector? Join us for exploration of the ‘human element’ of change, where participants will be invited to explore our values-based practice, the images we hold, as well as the vulnerabilities and skills at the heart of leading this work forward.
