Jobs/Roles in the ECE Community: Internationally

I have chosen three internal organizations that can help me with the pursuit of developing a developmentally appropriate rating system for Early childhood programs catering to 4 to 5 year old children.
1. Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development
The mission of this organization is to promote policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world.The OECD provides a forum in which governments can work together to share experiences and seek solutions to common problems.

The OECD can help me by looking at the problem of the lack of early childhood programs around the world and how we can improve the ones we have while building more.

2. International Step By Step Association.
ISSA is a membership organization that connects professionals and organizations working in the field of early childhood development and education. ISSA promotes equal access to quality education and care for all children, especially in the early years of their lives.
The ISSA is currently working with 29 governmental agencies around the world to improve early childhood education.


3.Academy for Educational Development.
The vision of the Academy for educational Development is to envisions a world in which all individuals and communities have the opportunity to reach their highest potential.

I believe this organization believes in the people and wants them to have the best available and developing a developmentally appropriate rating system can help all children get the best education possible.


A job that I am interested in is a Director of a Childcare Center. I believe that as a director of a childcare center I would have the opportunity to develop a program that would most benifit the children.
The requirements for a director are:
1. The director/ shall be at least 21 years of age.
2. . The director shall have a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university with at least 12 credit hours of child development or early childhood education and one year of experience in a licensed child care center or comparable setting, subject to approval by the Bureau;
