The Center on the Social and Emotional Foundations for Early Learning (CSEFEL) is focused on promoting the social-emotional development and school readiness of young children birth to age 5. These modules were designed to address the social-emotional needs of young children. The content of the modules is consistent with evidence-based practices. Site coaching sessions with classroom observation and coaching meetings are part of supporting the implementation of what was learned from the CSEFEL training series.  

You are qualified to attend this training if you have been pre-approved to attend by your supervisor/director.  Supervisors/Directors forward the pre-approved names to the Kings County Cares about Quality (KCCAQ) program.
