No Time for R&R: The Roles and Responsibilities of Directors and Administrators

Overseeing a childcare facility is no small feat: directors and administrators in a single day take on a number of different roles--problem solver, mediator, facilitator, advertiser, employer, advocate.

By the end of this course, child care directors and administrators will be able to demonstrate understanding of the roles and responsibilities to students and their parents, community, and the staff who follow their lead; they will also be able to create mission statements that reflect the center's ideology and identify the qualities of highly-qualified staff.
