Workshops aim to help ECE workers apply for TEACH scholarships

If you are an Early Childhood Education Professional interested in furthering your education, join the Pennsylvania Child Care Association for an information session to learn more about the T.E.A.C.H. Scholarship Program. T.E.A.C.H. is a unique opportunity that provides financial and other supports to help ECE professionals enroll in college, earn their degree debt free and earn more money!

PACCA recently received additional funding to offer scholarships to staff working in STAR 1 and STAR 2 programs in the current fiscal year. These scholarships will provide additional financial supports, including a $200 completion stipend to scholarship recipients upon successful completion of their first semester and an increased release time reimbursement rate of $15 per hour to employers.

These additional funds are available for this fiscal year ONLY (through June 30, 2022), so take advantage of this opportunity now!

Join one of the information sessions to learn more about:

  • Higher education options and selecting a degree program,
  • Next steps to enrolling in college,
  • Timelines for enrolling in late start Spring or Summer 2022 semesters,
  • How to access financial supports, including the T.E.A.C.H. Scholarship Program, and
  • Time for Q&A to help attendees develop a personalized plan for next steps.
