You Spoke, We Listened! NAEYC is committed to continuous quality improvement and the use of feedback from stakeholders to enhance our accreditation system. NAEYC Accreditation of Early Learning Programs has made significant enhancements to the accreditation process and standards. We compiled data from program records, early childhood educators, program administrators, and other stakeholders to identify and prioritize enhancements that build on our 30-year experience and streamline the accreditation process. Revisions to the NAEYC Early Learning Program Accreditation Standards and Assessment Items were approved by the Council on the Accreditation of Early Learning Programs in January 2018. We want you to be successful! Data from the 2017 accreditation pilot indicates that programs are most successful when they use NAEYC resources to deepen their understanding of the NAEYC Early Learning Program Accreditation Standards and Assessment Items. That is why we updated resources and tools to support you throughout your accreditation journey. NAEYC.org/accreditation/early-learning-program-accreditation
