Time Well Spent: So long, farewell: See you in my future.

The roads we travel and the people we meet.

As I began this class I bought my hopes and dreams, my inspiriting and my disconforts. When I met my online colleagues, I knew they were my supporters. I have learned one thing that mean so much to me. No matter how far we are apart we were a team. I will always charest my learning experiences and the information that I picked up from each of you and Dr. Teri I appreciate you too. Thank you for helping me to accompolish my dream, a Master in Early Education, is now a reality.
I learned to make a “wordle” something I had never done, I learned to about my biased, did’nt know I had them, and I’ve learned that I need all of you today, tomorrow, and forever.

I will not forget the people I met in the 2011-2013 Masters of Early Childhood Studies, Master’s Degree Program
Thank you.

Documentation

All documents can be uploaded. For your reference, below is a comprehensive list of all documents needed for your file. When uploading files, please keep the size under 1MB. For photos, we recommend JPEG or JPG. For all other documents, Word or PDF format is preferred. You do not have to wait to submit your application in order to upload documents. You can add documents to your file at any time by using the ‘Upload Additional Documents’ link located in your candidate dashboard.



How should letters of recommendation be submitted?


Required Documents

- Two (2) confidential supervisory references from within the past seven (7) years
- Partner Statement (if applicable)

All ISS members are encouraged to obtain a confidential reference from their current administrator. At a minimum, you are required to provide a confidential reference from two supervisors from within your past seven years of experience. Having a reference from your current supervisor is what recruiters prefer. We understand this may not always be feasible, but not doing so may impact your candidacy. Please bear in mind, recruiters will, at some stage, expect you to have a recommendation from your current supervisor before going further in the process. Schools will contact you first and interview you if they are interested, and will then seek a reference from your current supervisor. You should be prepared to request a confidential recommendation from your current supervisor at this time if it is not already a part of your profile. ISS has made it easy for you to do this online or via email. As you complete your membership application, you will be asked to supply at least two references and their email addresses. Upon our initial approval of your application, ISS will then send your references a link to complete a confidential recommendation form on your behalf. This form is easy to complete, no more than ten minutes of their time, and can be sent back to ISS directly. This process is easy for all involved, as it has been streamlined in hopes of getting each person’s membership active quickly!



Additional Documents to Complete Your Profile

While submission of these documents is optional, please know that recruiters would like to review them. So that your dossier represents you well, you are encouraged to include the following documents in your file:

- Supervisory references covering all experiences within the last 7 years

- Copies of current credentials

- Photo
