2013 North Carolina Child Care Workforce Study

Through funding from the Division of Child Development and Early Education, through a Race to the Top Early Learning Challenge Grant, Early Years conducted a statewide survey of the early care and education workforce in North Carolina from January 2013 through December 2013. This study provides comprehensive data on teachers, assistant teachers and directors in early care and education centers and on the licensed early care and education programs in which they work. Additionally, information gathered from this study is compared to similar studies conducted by Early Years in 2011 and 2003.
