As Canada’s hub for inclusive early child care and education, our professional knowledge is informed by research and industry best practices to achieve the highest possible outcomes for children, families, educators and community partners.

Inclusive Child Care (ICC) builds upon the skills, knowledge, and confidence of early childhood educators to provide high quality, inclusive learning environments for all children across Alberta.
