South Dakota Pathways to Professional Development is a statewide project recognizing those who work in child care, preschool, Head Start, Out-of-School Time and other programs serving the needs of children and families and may include practitioners with entry-level education or advanced degrees.
The goal of the Pathways project is to support those who actively pursue ongoing educational opportunities and professional commitments to the field.
