How will I know if an early childhood program is accredited by NAEYC?
The current list of accredited programs is posted on-line and updated monthly. In addition, accredited programs may display the Academy’s insignia–a torch–on their stationery and promotional material. Also, NAEYC-accredited programs receive a large colorful poster depicting the characteristics of accredited programs along with a certificate of accreditation. Look for the poster and certificate in any program you visit.
