Jobs/Roles in the ECE Community: Internationally

1) ISSA (International Step-by-Step Association)

website: http://www.issa.nl/conference2019


I found this website interesting because I found that ISSA has conferences, which I believe are every year. If I am not mistaken, you are able to join in to the conference virtually, however, it is a paid conference. The conference “will be packed with the latest learnings and insights from the Early Childhood Development field, offering two days of knowledge sharing, dialogue and networking. And there will also be a rich and diverse offer of one day pre-conference workshops and site visits events for you to choose from” (ISSA, n.d.).

2. UNICEF

Website: https://www.unicef.org/early-childhood-development

One quote that stood out to me from this website was “When you pay attention to the beginning of the story, you can change the whole story” . I like this quote because it is true. We have to make the foundation in their early childhood years so that they are not learning things in their latter life such as social skills, problem solving etc  

Careers:

  • International Professional (IP)
  • National Officer (NO)
  • General Services (GS)

All which require experience professional work depending on which level you need more than one year.

3. Save The Children

Website: https://www.savethechildren.org/us/more-ways-to-help/take-action-for-kids

I found this website insightful because it speaks about advocating for children. It also features a blog that allows people to talk about their reason for joining and ways they advocate for children.

In addition, they want to help congress understand the importance of expanding affordable child care for working families.

  1. Hi Antonietta, thank you for sharing information about this agency. I like the fact that this agency provide information about insight into early childhood field. It is also great that there is no cost to attend the conference. There are new things happening in early childhood every year. I love the idea of registering for conferences that will keep me abreast of the changes and new things being added to early childhood field. Thanks for sharing.
