The first organization that came to mind when contemplating grander job opportunities was Zero To Three. I first learned about them during this program of study, and I have loved everything they stand for and against. Their passion and dedication for families and children is inspiring.
I couldn't find any listed career opportunities that appealed to me, except for the potential of an internship. For some reason, the idea of dipping into the different levels of this organization is fascinating to me. I would have the opportunity to work with parents, professionals, and policy makers. Qualifications include being currently enrolled in a graduate program. Well that works :)
The second organization I researched was the NAEYC, National Association for the Education of Young Children. I very much look up to them as leaders in this field, and find their resources helpful and plentiful. I couldn't find a job posting that suited me, but I was very interested in their professional development opportunities. They provide extensive classes and trainings to advance one's career, and I think that in itself would be worth joining!
My third musing isn't an actual listed job opening, but it's something I am very interested in since writing the week 3 paper on historical context. I learned that the CDC (Center for Disease Control) is aligned with two prominent professionals in the study of ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences). I am so moved and passionate about this and the practice of trauma-informed care. I would love to work on the studies being conducted around this topic! My qualifications would be that I am a professional with an MS degree and a Capstone project surrounding the topic at hand. :)
