Annual Conference
Southeast Childhood Collective hosts an annual conference for early educators to come together for learning, networking, and enjoyment. This event takes place in Juneau every March and features engaging workshops, informative speakers, and advocacy opportunities to enhance the professional development of early educators from across the region. The conference offers essential training to meet licensing requirements, obtain a CDA, and learn best practices in the field.
