Join us for the 21st Annual Summer Institute on Early Childhood Development, a dynamic gathering dedicated to strengthening the early childhood education (ECE) workforce. This conference brings together educators, administrators, policymakers, researchers, and advocates from across Canada to explore innovative strategies for fostering a sustainable ECE workforce while addressing critical issues of equity and access.

Through engaging workshops, keynote presentations, and collaborative discussions, you will:

• discover actionable strategies to support, recruit, and retain talented early childhood educators;
• address the challenges of fair compensation and equity, advocating for policies that reflect the vital role of ECE professionals; and
• explore initiatives to build a robust and sustainable ECE workforce tailored to community needs.

This event is an opportunity to elevate the voices of early childhood educators and drive meaningful change. Together, we can create a future where every educator feels valued and empowered to shape the next generation of learners.
