The topic for my simulation was on how to secure and retain qualified staff to work in the early childhood field. From this topic I selected the subtopic of training and enhancing the qualifications of the staff already working in the program.
I feel that this is a crucial topic in the early childhood field because the rate of turn-over in staff is extremely high and with low pay comes low qualified teachers. I am a strong believer in if someone is willing to work the job, then make the best suited for the tasks at hand. I also selected this topic because at my program I feel as if I am constantly looking for new staff disrupting what the other staff have already established.
I find this class very helpful because instead of researching a topic that is assigned to me by the teacher, I am able to research topics that are impacting my life and professional goals. This course is also giving me the proper tools to research more effectively, which is always a plus.
