The newest and fourth CONNECT module, Family-Professional Partnerships, from the Center to Mobilize Early Childhood Knowledge is now available. Family-Professional Partnerships focuses on effective practices for developing trusting family-professional partnerships in early care and education programs (including home visiting, early intervention, and other 0-3 settings) and using a decision-making process to select partnership-oriented practices linked to developing an initial friendly relationship, making shared decisions, and developing a trusting partnership with families to address challenging issues.
Family-Professional Partnerships joins the first three CONNECT modules: Embedded Interventions, Transition, and Communication for Collaboration. Each CONNECT module is designed using an evidence-based approach to professional development. The modules help practitioners learn about effective ways to solve dilemmas in early childhood settings.
