In this edWebinar, experts will cover the theory and significance of social-emotional learning and executive functioning skills development as they relate to early childhood learning programs and highlight the current needs of early childhood programs as related to these areas. Potential solutions for these needs will be shared and attendees will leave with both online and offline solutions for implementation.

This edWebinar will be of interest to early childhood teachers, school and district leaders, education technology leaders, Head Start program administrators, and curriculum and instruction directors and specialists. There will be time for questions at the end of the presentation.
