Mirror mirror on the wall... am I really a professional at all?
with Michelle Doucette & Donna Barrett
8:30 am - 12:00 pm
As ECEs, we often feel as though we are not taken seriously by society. Long hours, low pay and heavy responsibility are all indicators of undervalued professions. It is easy to wonder how such a valuable and essential profession can go without distinction when we contribute so tremendously to shaping young minds.
This session will explore professionalism and all that it includes in the field of early learning. While we believe that the work we do leads us to professionalism, there may be more to it than we can currently see. During this session, we take a deeper look in the mirror as the first step to evaluating ourselves as professionals, and help us to discover ways to "up" our professional image and accent the value with regular evaluation of ourselves, our environment and our program.
