What is T.E.A.C.H. Early Childhood® MINNESOTA

What is T.E.A.C.H. Early Childhood® MINNESOTA?
T.E.A.C.H. Early Childhood® MINNESOTA is a scholarship program intended to help early childhood and school-age care professionals increase their levels of education, compensation and commitment to the field. T.E.A.C.H. has a history of helping Minnesota child care professionals earn college credits, degrees and credentials. T.E.A.C.H. is a project of the Minnesota Child Care Resource & Referral Network

What is the T.E.A.C.H. Early Childhood Scholarship Program?
This scholarship program for family child care providers and child care center staff offers funds to take courses toward an associate or bachelor degree in early childhood education at an accredited college in Minnesota.  It is a partnership between the recipient, the sponsoring center (when applicable) and T.E.A.C.H. that helps child care providers improve their skills and receive a financial reward.  The scholarship program also increases the availability of quality child care in local communities.

T.E.A.C.H. (Teacher Education and Compensation Helps) Early Childhood®
connects education, compensation and retention for the early childhood workforce by providing comprehensive scholarships for coursework leading to degrees and credentials in early childhood education. T.E.A.C.H. provides the opportunity for a diverse population of adult learners already working in the early childhood field to access college coursework to increase their knowledge and skills and work toward a college degree. It has emerged as an effective national strategy to help address the need for a well-qualified, fairly compensated and stable workforce.
