Jobs/Roles in the ECE Community: Internationally

I have chosen three organizations that I believe will change the lives of all young children.

United Nations, Children Funds (UNICEF) is an organization that fights for the well-being of young children and those that are in emergency crises. This organization is an advocate for all young children and believes in giving all individuals the opportunity to succeed with fair and just. This organization puts young children first and protects them from many situations that may come upon them. Young children are encouraged and supported in their development as well as disabilities, diseases, disasters, and how to overcome obstacles in their lives (UNICEF, 2011). If I can work with an organization that is funding young children in an emergency situation, it would be an honor for me. Supporting and engaging in a funding organization can help me to support children from diseases. In order to work with this organization, I would need a Master’s degree.

The Second organization is Save the Children. Young children worldwide deserve an opportunity to grow and develop in a safe learning environment. In any given situation, a child’s needs should always come first. SC is a group of people who are committed to helping children to strive in life. In the US, SC is an advocate for supporting young children with learning skills that they need in order to be successful early in life. This job will give me the chance to help young children in every domain. There is a position open for an Early Head Start teacher with an AA degree or higher.

The third organization is the Technical Assistance Coordinators for The Early Childhood Community of Practice-Connecting Circles of Care. These professionals and group members’ support and help with funding, implementing, developing, and designing the communities with a system that cares. They communicate and collaborate on conference calls with communities and other groups across the system of care to share concerns and to encourage problem solving (Keenan, 2014). The requirement for this job is a Bachelor degree in the field of social services.

Job/Roles in the ECE Community: Local and State Levels

Working in the Early Childhood Field is important to me. Each child should have the same learning opportunity as they grow and develop in life. Many childcare programs can be very expense in cost. The local and state organizations that appealed to me are the council for National Association for the Education of Young Children, Exceptional Children, and Division for Early Childhood. The reason I choose the three because I would like to work with organizations that are dedicated to helping and treating all young children with fair and just. Having the opportunity to aide young children in getting developmental appropriate programs is an accomplishment educators should be very proud off.

After doing resource, on the local and state organizations, there are job opportunities available in council that might be of interest to me. The Council for NAEYC Accreditation qualified and dedicated to promoting early childhood high quality programs (ECE, 2011). The Council for Professional Recognition promotes and improves performance of professionals in the early childhood education, and to ensure that all early childhood educators and caregivers meet the developmental, emotional, and educational needs of all young children (ECE, 2011). “Council for Exceptional Children is the largest international professional organization dedicated to improve the educational success of young children with disabilities and/or gifts and talents. CEC advocates for appropriate governmental policies, sets professional standards, provides professional development, advocates for individuals with exceptionalities, and helps professionals obtain conditions and resources necessary for effective professional practice” (ECE, 2011). Lastly, The Division for Early Childhood (ECE, 2011) is an international membership organization for those who work with or on behalf of young children with disabilities and other special needs. The goal is to promote policies, and practices to support the best development of young children with special needs.

These jobs require a Bachelor’s degree and three to five years of experiences in the early childhood field before getting hired. I believe I am quality to do the work, but I have not worked in the early childhood field as of yet. Also, I believe I will enjoy working with either one of the company. Working with the companies will give me the opportunity to provide all young children with the best learning materials through high quality programs. Through the leadership of these programs, the outlook on early childhood education can be very rewarding for all young children.
