from the field...
by Stacy Howard, Contributing Editor, Consumer Affairs
The Office of Early Learning’s field staff are at the center of attention in the recent reorganization. Most noticeably, we’ve changed the name coalition analysts to Regional Technical Assistance (TA) Coordinators. While continuing to attend board and other meetings, coordinators have shifted their focus to providing technical assistance and training to the early learning coalition staff.
The TA coordinators are a diverse and talented group of individuals with a vast amount of knowledge that ranges from operational expertise to program experience. This new role concentrates the coordinators’ efforts on sharing this expertise more readily with coalition staff. The TA coordinators are excited and look forward to continuing to work closely with coalition staff in their expanded roles.
In spite of the new title, one thing has not changed. The TA coordinators are committed to being part of the continued progress and success of the coalitions and to support their needs and goals. Please feel free to contact your regional TA coordinator and let him or her know of training or technical assistance needed by your team or training you would like to see offered.
For more information about the TA coordinators, please call or email Stacy Howard, Consumer Affairs Manager, at the Office of Early Learning, Telephone: 850-921-3468.
