Strong educators are the foundation of high-quality child care — and supporting them goes far beyond one-time training.
In this January Lunch & Learn session, we explore why training that sticks, competency-based support, and ongoing professional development are critical for educator success in 2026 and beyond. Whether you’re a child care owner, director, or leader, this session offers practical insights you can apply right away without adding more to your already full plate.
Watch the full Lunch & Learn replay below and explore the resources shared to help you put these ideas into action in your program.
