A Practical Guide for Universal Child Care in British Columbia
The Guide for Universal Child Care is a research-informed proposal, which recognizes peer-reviewed research, as well as data collected from B.C.'s Universal Child Care Prototype program (2018-2020) related to quality measures for child care.
BC Child Care Quality Assessment Standard (QAS)
The BC Child Care Quality Assessment Standard (QAS) is an assessment tool that, unlike the directive rubrics found in ECERS /ITERS and the AQI and the solely open-ended Alberta Accreditation tool, blends a rubric with outcome-based objectives. Based off of the BC ELF and the BC Child Care Licensing Regulations, the QAS is a tool for child care programs to self-assess as well as participate in a BC quality assessment system that provides Educators and Parents assurance of the quality of a particular program.
