Course Summary

Self-awareness provides a window to expand our understanding of other points of view and other perspectives. While the importance of self-awareness is readily understood by most people- achieving it is easier said than done. Our profession requires us to form relationships with children and families. In this proprietary Think Small Institute course, you will gain the knowledge and skills necessary to identify and understand the importance of identity and how it shapes relationships with the children and families you serve. You will learn about real-world scenarios to gain a greater understanding, appreciation, and sensitivity to the fundamental differences in identities.
