Early Childhood Teacher Preparation Programs in the US

A new document from researchers at the FPG Child Development Institute provides a detailed picture of the nation’s early childhood teacher preparation programs and has 45 accompanying state reports. The reports provide basic descriptive information about program, faculty, and student characteristics of early childhood teacher preparation programs. It updates the groundbreaking study of the 1999 National Center for Early Development & Learning that provided the first nationally representative data on the goals, capacity, supports and challenges of early childhood teacher preparation programs.

The national report is available at http://www.fpg.unc.edu/~npc/pdfs/national_report.pdf and the state reports are available at http://www.fpg.unc.edu/~npc/pages/state_reports.cfm
