Selecting the Training that's Right for You!

The plethora of training options available today is both exciting and confusing. You can now learn anything, anytime, anywhere, for any price. No longer do you have to fall asleep at a boring seminar. Now you can play real-life simulations, listen to webinars, or even attend a Twitter party and learn.
In this ever-changing world, training is the way to go. Need to learn about iPads in your classroom? Your agency is requiring additional certification for teachers? Or maybe you're trying to figure out the best literacy tips for an early childhood class. These are all reasons to get additional training. Whether you must meet additional degree requirements through agencies such as Head Start or states trying to professionalize child care, more options than ever are available to teachers seeking certification.

What is Vroom?
New science tells us that our children's first 5 years are when they develop the foundation for all future learning. Every time we connect with them, it's not just their eyes that light up--it's their brains too. In these moments, half a million neurons fire at once, taking in all the things we say and do. We can't see it happening, but it's all there, all at work. That's why Vroom is here.
Vroom turns shared moments into brain building moments. Whether it's mealtime, bath time, or anytime in between there are always ways to nurture our children's growing minds.
