  • Higher Education Cohorts Report
    December 2019 Higher Education Cohorts The Governor’s Office of Early Childhood Development (GOECD) thanks the Illinois Network of Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies (INCCRRA) for developing this report. We especially thank Joni Scritchlow, Senior Program Director, and consultants Kira Hamann, Patricia Chamberlain and Johnna Darragh. Finally, we thank all of those in the field who contributed information and suggestions for the report. GOECD will use this report to help Institutions of Higher Education develop additional cohorts targeted to their communities’ specific needs, and to help the operators of early care and education programs find cohort programs that meet the needs of their staff members. This publication was made possible by Grant Number 90TP0001-01-00 from the Office of Child Care, Administration for Children and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Its contents are solely the responsibility of the authors and do not necessarily represent the official views of the Office of Child Care, the Administration for Children and Families, or the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Cohort Pathways in Illinois: Innovative Models Supporting the Early Childhood Workforce Institutions of higher education in Illinois have long implemented collaborative, innovative strategies to support credential and degree attainment. The Illinois Governor’s Office of Early Childhood Development (GOECD) is invested in supporting flexible, responsive pathways to credentials and degree attainment for early childhood practitioners, as early childhood practitioners equipped with appropriate knowledge and skills are critical to developing and implementing high-quality early childhood experiences for young children and their families. At the same time, the State of Illinois is eager to ensure that pathways developed not only support entry into and progression within the field, but also are inclusive of and responsive to programs’ diverse and experienced staff members who have not yet attained new credentials and/or degrees.
