Impact of In-Service Professional Development Programs for Early Childhood Teachers on Quality Ratings and Child Outcomes: A Meta-Analysis

Abstract: High pedagogical quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) is related to developmental outcomes in young children. This review summarizes findings from (quasi)-experimental studies that evaluated in-service training effects for ECEC professionals on external quality ratings and child development. The aggregation of findings at teacher level (including 36 studies with 2,891 teachers) revealed a medium in-service training effect on process quality (effect size [ES] = 0.68, SE = 0.07, p < .001).

“…There are only a few empirical studies that demonstrate effects of PD on teacher outcomes, practices as well as child development (Egert et al, 2018;Werner, Linting, Vermeer, and van IJzendoorn, 2016). For instance, some researchers demonstrated positive outcomes of their PD on teacher beliefs (King, 2014;Ottley et al, 2015) and practices (Kratzmann et al, 2017;Sachse et al, 2016).…”

“…Several meta-analyses provide further evidence of the effects of PD in ECEC on teacher outcomes, practices and child development (see Egert et al (2018); Markussen-Brown, Juhl, Piasta, Bleses, Hojen, and Justice (2017) and Werner et al (2016) for details). While these studies generally indicate positive effects of PD, the effect size differs.…”
