The Virtual Training Institute  Overview A Work Place Development Program for  Early Childhood Educators in Hawaii
The Virtual Training Institute Overview: Need for Higher Education for Early Educators “ Research has shown that the most important period of learning takes place in the first five year’s of a child’s life, and yet, in Hawai‘i, we face a shortage of highly qualified teachers who are trained in early childhood education.” (Mobley, 2006)  “ Moreover, state after state is requiring greater training and higher standards for early childhood teachers. Four-year degrees are rapidly becoming the norm for teaching children from birth through age five. At the national level, the most recent Congressional reauthorization of the Head Start program requires that at least 50 percent of its teachers hold bachelor degrees by 2010. Twenty-one states require bachelor’s degrees for early childhood teachers who work in state financed pre-kindergarten programs.” (Mobley, 2006) Source: Mobley, J. (2006).
