8.10 Program Evaluation:
Program evaluation is universally recognized as one of the key indicators of quality in child care. Evaluating your program helps you identify the strengths and growth opportunities for your program, continuously grow as a professional, provide a quality environment for the children in your care, and increase family awareness of the importance of their child’s care.
Continuous quality improvement (CQI) is a way for your program to regularly enhance services and increase positive outcomes for the children and families you serve. Even the best family child care homes benefit when you regularly review your practices, make goals specific to the needs of your program, carry out the plans you make, and regularly repeat this process.
