The Center for Early
Education and Development (CEED) at the University of Minnesota
has spent over 30 years helping children from infancy through age
eight to learn and develop to the best of their abilities. Through
research and community outreach, we strive to effect positive change
in early education, child care, and public policy. |

CEED's mission is to improve
developmental outcomes for children through:
- Applied
Research. Identify pressing community needs and conduct focused, high-impact studies to solve the problems. Identify experiences
and program options that promote young children's development and
the skills of individuals who serve them.
- Training. Provide current and
future early childhood professionals with research-based training.
Provide professional development that brings this knowledge to
individuals who can use it.
- Outreach. Share knowledge
widely to support program and policy development, strategic
partnerships, and early childhood advocacy. Ensure a tight
connection between what our communities want and what we offer with
a higher degree of integration across the early childhood years.
CEED promotes ongoing coordination and
expansion of academic leaders interested in early education and
development and provides leadership in the University's ongoing effort
to engage the people and programs of Minnesota in ways that make real
contributions to our quality of life. CEED is strong, vital, and positioned for an exciting future.
