Network Early Career Enhancement Program
The goal of the Network Early Career Enhancement (NECE) program was to create a cohesive and supportive experience for emerging scholars involved in the Early Learning Network.
With the support of network principal investigators, the NECE program provided early career researchers with individualized training, professional development opportunities and mentored support.
Through their involvement with network studies, early career researchers had the opportunity to establish practice and policy research targeting at-risk children, identify malleable protective factors and find ways to close opportunity gaps. As a group, NECE participants learned about collaboration, institutional roles and responsibilities, publishing and dissemination and a host of other topics relevant to young researchers.
