Trainings and Conferences

Annual Teacher's Conference

ITC offers an annual conference for area teachers. The annual conferences, begun in 2004, fill a training gap for teachers of infants, toddlers and preschoolers by offering teachers an opportunity to visit classrooms, share with other teachers and hear of our work developed from many years of documenting children’s learning and offering environments that continually challenge children.
