This webinar will provide a program overview and describe the application process for the Integrated Research and Policy Fellowship program at the National Early Care and Education (ECE) Workforce Center. If you are interested but unable to attend, please register; all registrants will receive the webinar recording and slides.
The National ECE Workforce Center is recruiting two research fellows and two policy fellows for the second year of our Integrated Research & Policy Fellowship, which runs from February 2025—January 2026. The year-long fellowship is designed to achieve two primary goals: (1) support the leadership development of individual fellows, and (2) help fellows build their expertise about the ECE workforce while gaining skills to effectively bridge research and policy/practice. To facilitate participation, participants will receive a stipend of $12,500.
There are two tracks, each with two fellows. Candidates applying for the research track must be currently enrolled graduate students in fields related to ECE, while policy track applicants are current professionals such as early educators or others active in the ECE sector.
