Handboek Pedagogische Beleidswerker En Coach

The Handboek Pedagogisch beleidswerker en coach is a comprehensive, in-depth reference work for anyone working as a pedagogical policy officer or pedagogical coach in childcare. This relatively new role plays a crucial part in strengthening pedagogical quality and in translating policy into day-to-day practice in the workplace.

In this handbook, Loïs Eijgenraam and Merel O’Carroll-van Stokkem clearly map out the responsibilities, roles and areas of work that belong to the pedagogical policy officer and coach. They pay explicit attention to the tension that can arise when the coaching role is combined with a management position, a familiar challenge in many childcare organizations.

The book offers:

• a solid theoretical foundation, backed by laws and regulations
• practical guidelines for writing and safeguarding pedagogical policy
• tools for working in a process-oriented way, such as presenting policy to management and parent committees
• in-depth guidance on setting up and supervising coaching programs at the individual, group, location and organizational level
• insight into various coaching methods that can be applied directly in practice

Thanks to its clear structure, this handbook is suitable both for pedagogical policy officers and coaches who are just starting out and for experienced professionals who want to use it as an in-depth reference.

The book also works very well as a textbook in programs such as PEP, Pabo and GPM, and is valuable for management and HR in childcare organizations that want to put pedagogical quality first.
