Welcome to Atlas Training Center:  A Training and Consulting Program for Early Childhood Education

Our program goals are to contribute to early childhood education by:

• Offering training to new or experienced teachers in Early Childhood Education to meet the 120-hour requirement to prepare them to apply for the national CDA Credential. 
• Supporting teachers in moving from the CDA onto a professional path to develop as credentialed and degreed teachers.
• Working with new program directors by providing consultative services to get their new centers to comply with OEC Licensing requirements in a timely manner and to stay on track for continued success.
• Supporting new program directors in effectively training their staff on best practices for working with individual children. 
• Offering monthly professional development workshops for teachers in early childhood education to support them in developing meaningful and effective curriculum for young children.  
• Facilitating conversations with teachers related to developing meaningful relationships and curriculum for children as well as involving parents in care.
