TECTA is a statewide system established to provide affordable professional development with academic degree credit possibilities for Tennessee's early childhood education personnel. The TECTA system is funded through and dependent upon annual grants from the Tennessee Department of Human Services (DHS) to Tennessee State University (TSU) Center of Excellence for Learning Sciences.
“I own a small group center in Knoxville, Tennessee. I was interested in TECTA Orientation because I wanted to learn more about early childhood and educate myself on how to run and operate my center to be an elite program. I also wanted to provide my staff and families with the knowledge I received. Many years ago, I had dream that I needed to go back to school for my CDA training. I said Lord are you telling me to go back to school? I didn’t say no, I just hid it in my heart. In 2021 I started the TECTA Orientation Class with all kinds of fear. I remember my Pastor saying, never let fear stop you from doing something you’re called to do. Do it in Fear! So here I am, I have completed TECTA Orientation, 4 ECED classes at Roane State and received my CDA! All because I hind a dream in my heart and said YES to it! I would like to encourage anyone that is looking to enhance their career, please do it. You won’t regret it!”
If you would be willing to show your support for TECTA and the valuable training that it's given to you or your staff please contact belitzef@roanestate.edu for further information. We would love to hear 'success stories' or stories on how TECTA has changed the way you work or helped your child care facility become the best that they can be!
