Description:
With funding from the Division of Child Development and Early Education, through a Race to the Top Early Learning Challenge Grant, Child Care Services Association (CCSA) conducted a statewide survey of the early care and education workforce in North Carolina from February 2014 through October 2014. This study provides comprehensive data on teachers, assistant teachers, and directors in early care and education centers and family child care providers and on the licensed early care and education programs in which they work. Licensed centers include programs operated by public schools, for-profit entities, and not-for-profit entities, including Head Start. Additional information from similar studies conducted by CCSA in 2011 - 2013 is also provided. Comparison of the data from these surveys enables readers to learn about the continuities and changes in the early care and education (ECE) system and workforce that may have occurred over this time period between 2011-2014. This report also references data from the 2001 and 2003 CCSA workforce studies to provide a perspective on changes over a longer period of time. (author abstract)
