Dieses Buch bietet ein detailliertes Bild des frühpädagogischen Personals in Europa. Welche Anforderungen werden im Hinblick auf die Qualifikation gestellt? Wie sehen Wege in den Beruf aus? Wodurch sind die jeweiligen Arbeitskontexte geprägt? Welche politischen Initiativen werden ergriffen? Welche Herausforderungen gibt es? Diese Fragen wurden im Rahmen eines dreijährigen Forschungsprojekts in 33 Ländern untersucht. Das Buch fasst zentrale Ergebnisse zusammen und präsentiert länderübergreifende Vergleiche ausgewählter Aspekte im Kontext der unterschiedlich strukturierten Systeme der frühkindlichen Bildung und Kindertagesbetreuung. This book offers a systematic insight into the development of early childhood professionals in Europe. What are the requirements in terms of qualifications? What do career paths look like? What characterises the respective working contexts? What political initiatives are being taken? What challenges are there? These questions were analysed as part of a three-year research project in 33 countries. The book summarises the key findings and presents cross-national comparisons of selected aspects in the context of the differently structured systems of early childhood education and care.
