Benefits of learning about the International EC field

 

1. Studying international websites has opened my eyes to the vastness of the EC field and it is very interesting to know what other professionals are doing.
2. Professionally, it encourages me when I see the amazing influence EC professionals have when they speak up and reach out.
3. Professionally, it is wonderful to know that the purpose of EC is the same all around the world and that is to celebrate learning and development from birth and foster it by providing enriching environments and by educating parents and other professionals in a communal effort to raise healthy generations of children admist lack, poverty, disease, and communism.

I think one goal for the EC field as a whole, internationally and locally, would be to keep the focus on children and what they need and for professionals to stay updated on current research in the field and in professional development so they can be the best for themselves, their children, families and their colleagues.
