Driving Intentional Systems Change with and for the ECE Workforce

Apr012026
2:00 PM – 3:30 PM ET

Learn how to put the National ECE Workforce Center’s Systems Change Framework into action. The Change Framework provides a blueprint for ECE leaders to design intentional, evidence-based improvements for early educators’ compensation, career pathways, and work environments. By addressing the interconnected components of the ECE policy landscape, this research-based structure offers a lens for creating durable solutions to the field’s most complex workforce challenges.

In this webinar, you will hear from architects of the Change Framework, technical assistance specialists, and systems change leaders from Minnesota about:

  1. The core features of the Change Framework and its embedded drivers for change.
  2. How to apply the Change Framework to drive sustainable improvements in ECE workforce compensation, career pathways, and work environments.
  3. How to use the Center’s tools to conduct a system assessment and advance ECE workforce policy, research, and practice.
