Global Expertise. Local Impact. Lifelong Change.

For more than 130 years, Childhood Education International (CE International) has advanced quality early childhood care and education (ECCE) around the world. With a presence in over 100 countries, our work has reached hundreds of thousands of educators and caregivers — positively shaping the learning, wellbeing, and futures of millions of children.

Our Services

From advising national ministries of education to strengthening the capacity of local NGOs and schools, CE International provides strategic consulting and technical expertise that helps partners design and implement solutions tailored to their most pressing challenges. Our services span quality assurance, professional learning, and systems development, offering actionable and sustainable strategies that produce measurable outcomes.

A Legacy of Leadership

We combine our deep legacy of leadership with a commitment to innovation and equity, ensuring that every initiative is context-specific, evidence-based, and aligned with the evolving needs of children and communities. Across our Centers, publications, and professional learning platforms, we equip the global ECCE field with knowledge, tools, and resources that expand access to high-quality education and care — especially for children growing up in poverty, conflict, and displacement.

Today, CE International stands at the intersection of research, practice, and policy — helping build stronger early childhood systems and a more equitable future for all young learners. Our history is our foundation; our innovations are our path forward.
