Have data? Not sure what to do with it? Or how to use it to your benefit? We have so much data in ECE it can be difficult to figure out how to use it all and what it all means! This four-hour data basics training will build an awareness of data terminology and examine the purpose of data use in early childhood settings. Participants can apply the lessons from the training to their daily work, no matter what type or quantity of data their programs have. This training will support early childhood programs and providers in cultivating a climate and infrastructure of data utilization for continuous quality improvement.
