All training provided by thread is recognized as formal clock hours required by the Council for Professional Recognition for the Child Development Associate (CDA) credential. thread training is accepted by Child Care Licensing for annual training requirements and for placement on the System for Early Care and Education (SEED) Framework.
Training may be accessed through distance delivery, onsite (at child care centers only and by request) or at our Channel Drive offices. Please call our office at any time for more information on training. To view training offered in Southeast Alaska, go to www.threadalaska.org , and click on training calendar. Search by region rather than city.
All training provided by thread also embeds Alaska Early Learning Guidelines and Strengthening Families Protective Factors.
We strive to offer a variety of training options and encourage participants to sample a variety of training methods. Some of us learn best in a group, so that we can verbally process new information. Others are more self directed and learn best by reading and reflecting. Whichever mode of training you decide to take, we applaud and thank you for taking the time to stretch your knowledge and build your skills through professional development.
