TECTA Accreditation
Assistance
Is your program ready to consider. . . ACCREDITATION?
Accreditation mean operating your childcare program
based on nationally set standards verses state licensing requirements.
Check Yourself:
- Does your program strive to work beyond the minimum state
licensing standards for staff/training and staff-child ratios?
- Do you (and staff) have early childhood credentials such as TECTA training, CDA credential, associates degree or an education or
business degree?
- Does your staff have work benefits?
- Are your rooms set up into (centers) for play opportunities
such as blocks, dramatic play, creative art, science and cooking, manipulatives, library and puppets?
- Do parents participate in your program in any way?
- Does your program operate based on written policies to govern
the program, staff and parents?
If you can answer “yes” to most of these questions,
then you may be already exceeding state licensing and be ready to seek
national accreditation for your high quality childcare program!
