The Early Childhood Job Satisfaction Survey (ECJSS) is a career guidance tool that early childhood directors can use with staff. The resulting profile helps staff reflect on those aspects of their work that contribute most to job fulfillment.


HOW DOES IT WORK?


Step 1: Print and distribute Part I of the ECJSS to the individual worker to complete.

Step 2: Print Part 2: Developing a Job Satisfaction Profile. Either you or your staff member can follow the instructions provided to create the profile.

Step 3: Follow-up to discuss outcomes and identify next steps.
