Exchange Essentials

Exchange Essentials are a collection of hand-selected Exchange magazine articles focused on a particular topic. These easy-to-use, immediately accessible PDFs are a helpful starting point for staff training sessions, college courses, or individual professional development. Each Exchange Essentials features 8-15 articles written by early childhood education leaders that offer practical advice, ideas, and critical information for staff and students.

"Exchange Essentials are an excellent tool for ensuring that my staff has the solid foundation to support our program's children and families. They cover a wide range of topics, and I can incorporate them into staff professional development training, in individual coaching meetings, or share for independent study."
- Public Pre-K Teacher/Coordinator

"Exchange Essentials are timely and full of good ideas that you can put in place right away. They are an excellent resource for both new and experienced directors, trainers, and consultants."
