The Family Engagement Toolkit consists of 5 e-learning course modules:
- The What, Why and How of Family Engagement
- Build Strengths-based Relationships
- Respect the Family’s Role in the Child’s Development
- Show Cultural Respect
- Take a Shared Approach to Family Engagement.
Each of the five modules consists of multiple units, and learners can earn up to 15 professional development clock hours. The courses include video-based learning and interactive simulations, in which you, the learner, can role-play different common scenarios in early learning settings with virtual coaching support built into each simulation. Learners receive real-time feedback from a virtual coach as they learn about the strengths and pitfalls of the choices they make. It also includes support resources such as learning extension guides, tip sheets, and reflective journaling.
