To make the 2015 Transforming the Workforce volume more accessible, a companion guidebook, Transforming the Early Education Workforce: A Multimedia Guidebook, was developed, which pulls out key takeaways and ideas, elevates important concepts, and brings context to the dollar amounts discussed in the report. This multimedia guidebook is inspired by and drawn from Transforming the Financing of Early Care and Education (National Academies Press, 2018).
