The Program for Infant/Toddler Care Program Assessment & Reflection System (PITC PARS)  is a resource to use for observing, documenting, and reflecting on the essential aspects of  infant/toddler group care — from caregiving interactions to the physical environment to  program policies and administrative structures. 

Teachers, coaches, and care center leaders are encouraged to register for training to gain a deeper understanding of the PITC PARS Instrument and Subscales.
