Jobs/Roles in the ECE Community: National/Federal Level


“ZERO TO THREE is a national, nonprofit organization that provides parents, professionals and policymakers the knowledge and know-how to nurture early development” (Zero to Three, 2013).  Zero to Three is a national, nonprofit organization that I recently just found out from a parent at work. Below you will find a link to a Project Director position that I am interested in. http://www.zerotothree.org/about-us/careers/jobs/project-director-ehs-ccp-10-21-14.pdf

 

The National Association of Education for Young Children (NAEYC) is the world’s largest organization working on behalf of young children.   (NAEYC, 2013) I chose NAEYC because I know the significant importance it has in the early childhood field. NAEYC mission statement is to serve and act on behalf of the need, rights and well-being of young children.  NAEYC is the world largest organization working on behalf of children. NAEYC works with teachers to improve education and working conditions in early childhood education as well as the quality of the teachers. They are committed to promoting excellence in early childhood education.  Below is an available position that sparked my interest.                                               http://careerforum.naeyc.org/jobs/6597577/director-of-early-childhood-education

UNICEF is the driving force that helps build a world where the rights of every child are realized. We have the global authority to influence decision-makers, and the variety of partners at grassroots level to turn the most innovative ideas into reality.  That makes us unique among world organizations, and unique among those working with the young. UNICEF offer employment in many areas and also opportunities to volunteer. After looking through their website I found the job description under education very interesting. The link has been provided below.                                         http://www.unicef.org/about/employ/index_66519.html
