Ensuring competence in early intervention personnel through personnel standards and high-quality training

Abstract

Personnel standards are needed for professionals involved with infants and toddlers and their families, and innovative, high-quality training must be designed to meet those standards. Current training opportunities in North Carolina were designed with two important questions in mind: What arc some training alternatives that allow professionals to grow in their current role? What are some practical methods of evaluating trainee progress? This article discusses the components of standards that are used to fit trainee needs into an adult learning framework, and a description of quality training practices based on adult learning theory and practice is included.
