Standards and Assessment Instruments
Developed through the work of international task
forces of early childhood professionals, Step by
Step Standards and Assessment instruments assist
programs working towards a quality education for
children and their families. ISSA’s standards
incorporate the best international practices for
early childhood development, providing clear, easy-to-use
instructions, which can be used for self-assessment
or evaluative purposes. Teachers may apply to their
local Step by Step NGOs fo international recognition
through ISSA’s teacher certification program.
Assessment forms for preschool and primary ages
help teachers and other caregivers observe and
communicate information about children’s
development.
