T.E.A.C.H. stands for Teachers Education and Compensation Helps.  T.E.A.C.H.® was developed to address issues specific to the early childhood workforce.  These issues include: lack of specialized teacher education in early childhood, inadequate compensation, high turnover rates, and the lack of professional recognition for early childhood professionals.

T.E.A.C.H.® Nevada offers a variety of scholarships to better serve the population working within ECE; from the novice/entry level provider to a skilled director who may have a degree in a field other than ECE.  T.E.A.C.H.® Nevada Scholarships are designed to support all ECE providers interested in obtaining higher education credits.
