Education Core Curriculum Framework and Indicators (PECCFI) document is
now available for parent educators to download and print. In addition,
editable forms are available for educators to use in developing parent

The Parent Education Core
Curriculum Framework and Indicators is not intended to be a prescribed
curriculum. It provides a framework that defines and places parameters
around the core content—what we teach—in parent education.

Core Curriculum Framework and Indicators are to provide a resource that:
-
Frames or defines the body of knowledge
in the field of parent education.

objectives of parent education in ECFE and Even Start in Minnesota.
-

parent education with any type of parent education program,
population, setting, and delivery mode.

Is a planning tool for development and
delivery of parent education curriculum and lesson plans.
-

setting in parent education.
-
Guides assessment of parent education
outcomes and programs.
