Shared Goals: Supporting Massachusetts Caregivers and Health Safety Training

MA EEC BRIEFING • OCT 2026

Professional Development Tailored for Early Childhood Leaders

Safe, healthy environments for children shouldn't complicate your daily operations.

Hi, as an early childhood leader in Massachusetts, your dedication to maintaining a safe, healthy environment for both children and staff is at the heart of everything you do.

Between managing daily operations and ensuring your educators meet the Massachusetts EEC's 10-hour annual professional development requirement, finding high-quality training that addresses your specific facility needs can be a balancing act.

We are committed to providing practical, relevant CEU courses designed specifically for early childhood environments. To help us align our upcoming curriculum with your current operational goals, we are looking for your insights on topics such as:

❤️ Pediatric CPR & First Aid: Compliant, hybrid certification formats with efficient hands-on testing.

🏠 Healthy Homes & Spaces: Managing indoor air quality, mold prevention, and chemical safety.

🛠️ Lead & Asbestos Awareness: Identifying structural risks in older buildings and understanding safe renovation practices.

🐜 Integrated Pest Management (IPM): Establishing safe, child-friendly pest control policies.

📦 Workplace Safety Basics (OSHA-aligned): Preventing staff injuries, slip-and-fall hazards, and proper lifting techniques.

🧪 Hazard Communication: Understanding chemical labels on cleaning solutions/sanitizers and managing Safety Data Sheets (SDS).

Would you spare 3 minutes to share your program's top priorities with us?
