What our teachers have to say

Saikat

Lead Business Development at leading preschool in India
"I took up this course for self-enrichment, parenting knowledge and learning industry best practices. The course is extremely lucid even for someone who is not directly dealing with curriculum. It's well-structured and allows you to learn through ample resources: reading material, group sessions, podcasts and assignments. 'Retta' and 'Olli' from FINE are excellent with managing this program which is entirely online. It's been a great experience till now and looking forward to graduate soon with the "International Certificate Program in Early Childhood Education". I would recommend it to anyone who works with/manages children" If you too are in the education industry and are looking for an opportunity to excel in your role with in-depth technical knowledge delivered in an easy format, this course is for you!

Edwina

Entrepreneur in Sports Education for children

I look forward to the session days as it's been a while since I've been able to garner some intellectual stimulation. I really enjoy every part of the program whether it is the course content, the classroom interactions, or the reflection tasks. I was looking for credible insights into the Finnish Curriculum and this course has turned out to be a good start. The Indian contextual lens through KLAY is an added bonus and a stronghold of the curriculum. Working through a Foundational education course is an added advantage to my qualifications that will help in my growth trajectory

Indira

Preschool Centre Head with 13+ years' experience
The program is very interactive and we learn from each other's experience and thought process. The curriculum is well crafted to understand the different theories and pedagogy and the individual attention is an added bonus for the participants. The International Certificate Program in Early Childhood Education (ICP) is one of the best things that has happened to me and I am certain that this course will help me as a sales rep in the education industry

Prep for the future

In this rapidly changing world, there is no doubting the significance of a child’s early years and thereby the need for skilled early childhood education professionals. Preschool teachers in India usually need to have a basic graduation degree and to have done a training course in nursery teaching. However, this basic qualification is now insufficient. On the other hand, those early childhood educators who have invested in honing their skills are currently being flooded with opportunities. The career options for skilled professionals in education are at all-time high.

What Is Lacking In India’s ECCE System?

To begin with, Early Childhood Care and Education in India encapsulates the period from conception through eight years of age. The first eight years of a child’s life are critical. Since the rate of development in 0-8 years is more rapid than at any other age, significance of early years is beyond debate in today’s world. Research in neuro-science confirms the importance of the early years in a child’s life particularly since 85% of brain development has already taken place by the time a child is six years of age.

What skills do new age teachers need?

2020 is the “year of small things” but this year has taught great lessons to everyone. Teachers across the globe are no exception; they have not only learned the art of virtual classrooms but have also designed the curriculum overnight to meet this new demand. While you are reading this, a teacher from Rwanda might be getting up early morning to broadcast her lessons on the radio or a preschool teacher in India may be planning to jump, dance and sing to a screen as if she is conducting her circle time.

Panel Discussion: Together, Apart – Uniting Efforts for Children in the New World Order

With children out of school, physical distancing as the new norm, and children’s rights under threat, the new world order has “turned back the clock” on years of progress made on children’s well-being. However, it’s not all bad. As a human race, we’ve been built to adapt: we’ve seen a tipping point in technology-enabled education and the promise of a new education policy in our country.

What can we, as influencers of change in the education space, do to create a better tomorrow for children? Join us for a panel discussion where we can come together to unite our efforts to secure the future of the nex-gen and create a better tomorrow for children.
