The Board and Staff of the Early Childhood Development Association of PEI are pleased to present the 2021 ECDA Spring Conference! The provincial annual PD day will take place Friday, May 7th via Zoom. The knowledge exchanged for this conference will focus on the various aspects of “Inclusion and Diversity”, including:
• The developing brain and the crucial role relationships with others play in healthy development
• A deep look at the challenges of those we serve as educators, and those we face ourselves to help bring understanding, light and a much-needed dose of levity to our world
.• How stress and trauma may be impacting us and those we work with; including an exploration of what happens in our bodies when we experience trauma.
Regardless of which sessions you attend, the expertise of the facilitators will revitalize your passion for your work in the field of Early Childhood Care and Education. Thank you for attending the 2021 ECDA Spring Conference – the knowledge you gain enriches the future of the children in your care!
