Early Educator Certification (EEC)
The Next Step in Professionalizing the Field
Become part of the growing professional certification system. EEC is open to all NC Early Educators working directly with,
working on the behalf of, or intending to work with children ages birth to twelve!
The comprehensive application may be used by all of us….faculty, professional development providers & coordinators,
teachers, consultants, trainers, assistants, Smart Start & Child Care Resource & Referral Executive Directors, staff of state
early childhood agencies and programs, early childhood associations members and staff and more!
What is EEC? EEC is North Carolina’s certification system for Early Educators. EEC is an acknowledgement of an
individual’s verified level of educational achievement, based on a standardized scale. Education is the basis for EEC.
Education is coursework taken at a regionally accredited college or university. All public community colleges and
universities in North Carolina are regionally accredited. EEC does not replace teacher licensure and is designed to
complement that process.
How much does it cost?
EEC is a self-supporting system, which has been created with funding from private and public sources with a goal of being
funded primarily by individual fees when fully implemented. EEC fees are aligned with charges required by similar NC
professions. The cost for an initial review is $50. The fee for EEC recertification is $25, if completed prior to the issued
expiration date.
How do you apply?
Complete and sign your application.
Attach all official transcripts (for degrees and individual courses) to your application.
Attach a check or money order
Make a copy of all materials for your files.
Mail to: NC Institute for Early Childhood Professional Development
PO Box 959
Chapel Hill, NC 27514
A sealed certificate and an individual card will be mailed to you noting your official EEC level.

Albemarle Alliance for Children and Families Training Descriptions
American Heart Association Adult, Child, & Infant CPR & First Aid
The Heartsaver Pediatric First Aid/CPR AED Course teaches child care providers and
others to respond to and manage illnesses and injuries in an adult, child, or infant in the
first few minutes until professional help arrives.
Be prepared! Knowing what to do before, during and after an emergency is a critical part
of being prepared and may make all the difference when seconds count.
Note: Participants must attend part 1 and 2 with completed assignment to get training
certificate.
Anxiety in Young Children
Many anxieties and fears are normal. Anxiety is defined as apprehension without
apparent cause. It usually occurs when there’s no immediate threat to a person’s safety or
wellbeing, and the threat feels real.
The Environmental Rating Scales ECERS
The Environmental Rating Scales measure interactions that occur in a classroom between
staff and children, staff, parents, and children among themselves.
The rating scales define the environment in a broad sense and guide the observer to
assess the arrangement of space both indoors and outdoors with materials offered in
children’s activities.
Beyond Band-Aids
This training is designed to be a guide to the protection of children and educators in early
education settings.
The Environmental Rating Scales-ECERS-R
This session provides information about basic terms and definitions of the ECERS-R as
well as reminders about the lowest scoring items and indicators.
Boys Will Be Boys: So Why Do We Teach Them Like Girls?
Did you know that preschool boys are expelled at a rate more than three times that of
older peers who are in k-12th grade? And minority boys are twice as likely to be
excluded? This training focuses on understanding the reasons why boys are at such a
great risk for expulsion and how programs can best respond to these disparities.
The Environmental Rating Scales ITERS-R:
This session provides information about basic terms and definitions of the ITERS-R as
well as reminders about the lowest scoring items and indicators.

learning and positive relationships. This workshop will help participants learn how
important interaction between staff and children affects children’s behavior.

current best practice recommendations, and guidance on completing the online EPR Plan.

child participation indirectly by modifying or adapting the structural environment. Let’s

work for all children.

Children & Youth Partnership for Dare County Training Descriptions
.
teachers and children are higher. Play is disappearing. Forty years of research says play equals
learning. In this session, we will PLAY as we discuss the importance of play for all children, how
play can serve as an intervention for children with challenging behavior, Dr. Stanley Greenspan’s
Floortime concept, how play meets developmentally appropriate learning goals, and creative ways
teachers can explain the importance of play to parents.
American Heart Association CPR and First Aid for adults, children and infants.
Class will be taught through lecture, discussion, video, and skills practice. Certification cards will be
given to participants successfully passing written tests and skills demonstration.
Introduction to Cultural Competence: Awareness
Children from diverse backgrounds need to be in early learning environments that provide
experiences that reflect their cultural backgrounds, which include family values and learning styles.
This course is a beginning step to increasing awareness and understanding of culture and cultural
competence. It focuses on defining culture, cultural conditioning and culturally responsive teaching
and the role of engaging families. It is designed to be interactive and self-reflective. This course
requires 1 hour of pre-coursework to be completed prior to participation. Must pre-register no
later than Wednesday, June 14th.
Recertification Class - American Heart Association Adult, Child, & Infant CPR and First Aid
You must have valid certification within the month of recertification. CPR and First Aid for adults,
children and infants will be reviewed. Certification cards will be sent to participants successfully
passing written tests and skills demonstration.
Grief and Loss in Young Children: Helping Young Children Cope
Death and loss is a part of life that affects young children. The emotional pain of a child who has lost
a loved one makes it tempting to avoid the subject or to try to distract the child. When a loss is not
addressed appropriately by adults it may leave the child feeling confused or promote a feeling of
distrust. While we would all like to shield children from grief, the reality is that they will all
experience it at one time or another. This session will define most common times of grief and loss
for young children, identify stages of grief, discover ways young children react behaviorally to grief
and loss, and determine ways to support children through this process.
Leadership & Administration for Success in Early Childhood Programs: Introduction to
Leadership - Building Your Leadership Skills Module 1 – Parts 1 & 2
Participants of Module 1 will: 1) define what leadership is and identify leadership strengths and
needs for specific situations.
2) build knowledge and skills in a way that leverages their strengths and helps them improve on self
-identified areas of need.
This is the first of 3 learning modules divided into six, 2.5 hour sessions. It is being offered as part of
the Dare County Center Directors’ Forum. Modules 2 & 3 will be included in the 2017/2018 training
calendar. Directors from other counties are welcome.
ITS-SIDS
Learn how to provide a safe sleep environment for infants in a childcare setting. Training is required
every three years and within four months of hire for staff and volunteers, and family childcare
homes providers licensed to care for infants.
Emergency Preparedness and Response in Child Care Training
Emergency preparedness and response (EPR) rules went into effect July 1, 2015. The rules are
designed to assist licensed child care programs to be adequately prepared to respond to the needs
of children and others in the event of disasters and emergencies. Participants will learn more about
the rules and the required emergency preparedness and response plan.
Playground Safety
Playground Safety Training addresses playground safety hazards, supervision, and general upkeep
of the outdoor area. It is required for all licensed child care centers, but has very helpful and
important information for family child care home providers as well.
Preventing Challenging Behaviors: An Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound of Cure!
The environment a teacher creates, paired with her knowledge of the children in her care, can
prevent many challenging behaviors in young children. Teachers who create positive social
environments find that children more easily develop the social-emotional skills they need to
succeed. This session focuses on modifications teachers can make in six key areas of the
environment that will prevent and reduce conflict that leads to challenging behaviors.
PLAY!!! An Intervention for Challenging Behavior
Challenging behaviors come in many different formats and many different levels of intensity in
preschool children. A significant percentage of teachers report more challenging behaviors in their
classroom and frustration in their knowledge and ability to work with these children. At the same
time, skills once expected in kindergarten are being pushed down into preschool, so demands on

Below you will find a few friendly reminders for registration and attendance to workshops offered by Hertford-Northampton Smart Start Partnership.

Please be advised that the registration process has changed. Phone registrations are not allowed. In order to secure a space in the workshop(s), in which you have
registered, the workshop registration form and any required fee(s) must be paid in advance and received at the office no later than 3 days prior to the training
date. Please submit fees and registration forms for CEUS no later than one week prior to the training date.

You may register for any of the workshops by mail or coming to our office. The address for our office is:
711 East Vance Street
Murfreesboro, NC 27855

When registering by mail, please complete the registration form indicating the workshop(s) you are planning to attend, enclose the payment for the required fee(s)
and send to the address above.

Please register early. Some workshops fill up quickly. After registering for a workshop, note the information on the training calendar. We do not call with
reminders unless the location or the time of the training has changed.

No payment will be accepted at the training event.

Many of our Smart Start Contractors require that we have a minimum and maximum quota of participants in order to effectively teach their class. If you register
for a class, please plan to attend. We could possibly lose future contracts for lack of attendance. When this happens, it takes away the luxury of having local
trainings at an affordable price.

Arrive on time! Out of respect for the presenter and others present, no one will be allowed to enter more than 15 minutes late. In addition, if you leave early, you
will not receive the training credits for the workshop.

The fee for a duplicate certificate will be $5.00. We keep training information on file for three years.

Please note the registration information on your calendar. We do not call with reminders unless the location or the time of the training has changed.

If you cannot attend a training, please call us to have your fee applied to another workshop of your choice. You must call and cancel your attendance within three
days of the training. Your fee credit must be used within that particular training calendar period. No refunds are issued.

Registration fees are nonrefundable. Failure to cancel according to this policy will result in forfeiture of your registration fee. Sometimes, a workshop may be
cancelled. In that case, you will be notified if you are a paid registrant.

Emergency Preparedness and Response in Child Care Training
Emergency preparedness and response (EPR) rules went into effect July 1, 2015. The rules are
designed to assist licensed child care programs to be adequately prepared to respond to the needs
of children and others in the event of disasters and emergencies. Participants will learn more about
the rules and the required emergency preparedness and response plan.
Choosing and Using An Approved Curriculum

birth to age 5. The training will also provide info on formative assessment strategies with the

sensitive and ethical framework.
Child Abuse and Neglect
Participants will learn procedures for recognizing and reporting child abuse and neglect for young
children. They will also learn how to identify the signs and symptoms of abuse and neglect.
Hands on Fire Safety
Fire extinguishers are only valuable safety devices when you know how to use them. This is why
taking training on the use of fire extinguishers, will provide information to help you learn about the
ABCs of fire extinguishers, and how to perform visual inspections and decide whether or not to
attempt to fight a fire.
How Are You? How Am I?
Most preschool teachers are diligent about introducing their students to a large variety of
literature and pre-literacy activities. But emotional literacy – the ability to identify,
understand and respond to emotions in yourself and others in a healthy manner – is even
more basic to school readiness. We’ll examine the many benefits to children who gain a
strong foundation in emotional literacy, explore simple ways in which you can foster
emotional literacy in your classroom, and share some excellent resources for tools and
activities teachers can incorporate into their daily classroom curriculum to make
intentional teaching of emotions fun and easy.
Color Me Healthy
Color Me Healthy is a developmentally appropriate curriculum that is highly visual and interactive.
It uses color, music, dance and imaginary play to provide opportunities for physical activity and to
teach children about fruits and vegetables.
