Join us for this 2-day training on the Infant and Toddler Environment Rating Scale (ITERS-3). If you work with this age group, this training is designed for you and will introduce you to the ITERS-3. You’ll uncover where and when the scale is used and how it measures quality in your program. Activities will be provided that will help you become more familiar with the format and content of the ITERS-3. We will discuss how the scale requirements can be interpreted and scored and how procedures for completing observations can be conducted. Additionally, in-depth information will be shared about specific items of the scale, indicators and research findings.
Registration fees are non-refundable and non-transferable.
