Model Work Standards
The Model Work Standards represent a culmination of coordinated multi-year effort to articulate the components of a good work environment for early care and education professionals. These Model Work Standards articulate the components of the adult work environment that enable teachers to do their jobs well and provide good care for young children or youth. Feedback from the field, combined with research findings on best practices, form the basis of these standards. They are designed as a tool for programs working with young children and youth in order to have a high-quality work environment and support this workforce in providing high-quality services. Together, these Model Work Standards represent a vision for the future of center-based and family child care, and school-age care jobs.
