Integrity, responsibility, safety, and reliability are core values of NECPA. You will find these critical developmental goals also connected with other accreditations, like explained at the NAEYC website. At the NAEYC website, NAEYC presents high standards for accreditation that NECPA embraces as well. The foundation of our standards is our concern for the well-being of children, as the NAEYC website also defines as a key NAEYC priority. “Self-study,” “self-assessment,” and a review of standards, NAEYC priorities (presented at the NAEYC website), are also main concerns of NECPA. Similar to motivation explained by the NAEYC website, the healthy development of children drives the NECPA program.
Health and safety are additional NAEYC concerns outlined at the NAEYC website. Like NAEYC, as defined at the NAEYC website, NECPA evaluates the safety of the environment under observation.
NECPA places a high premium on the community, program and family. The NAEYC website similarly defines them as a value of NAEYC. The NAEYC website articulates “collaborative relationships with family” and community involvement as features in its focus. Likewise, NECPA incorporates teachers, administrators, community members, and family members in our assessment process.
The NAEYC website expresses NAEYC’s “particular focus on the quality of educational and developmental services” for children (NAEYC website: http://www.naeyc.org/content/about-naeyc). The NECPA program shares this very same focus in our vision. See the NECPA website and NAEYC website for additional information.
