NDCCPI is excited to offer high quality training to Early Childhood Educators around our state.  Over the years we have welcomed many well know early childhood experts to North Dakota. 

In 2016 we invited Jeff A. Johnson from Explorations Early Learning to train providers on play based learning and provider burn out.  Dan Hodgins, the author of GET OVER IT! Relearning Guidance Practices and BOYS: Changing the Classroom, Not the Child spoke to providers in 2017 about the Extinction of Childhood as well allowing fantasy play in early childhood environments.  2017 was also the first year that NDCCPI offered a two day conference for providers to earn all their required training for the year.  In 2018 Niki Buchan of Natural Learning joined us from Australia to share her knowledge of natural learning and supporting infants and toddlers and schematic play in early childhood.  2019 brough Ron Shuali to ND with his Yogarate, Empowered Educator and Director training! 

We are excited to announce that Denita Dinger from Play Counts will be presenting for NDCCPI in 2021!
