Abstract	The Rhode Island Early Learning Council (Council) is engaged in a multi-year planning process to build a coordinated early childhood system. An essential component of this system is access to appropriate early childhood higher education. To assist in this process, the Center for the Study of Child Care Employment (CSCCE) at the University of California, Berkeley, was asked to investigate early childhood higher education opportunities available to the state's early learning workforce. The Early Childhood Higher Education Inventory (Inventory) was designed to gain a clearer picture of the early childhood offerings in a state's higher education system. This document presents the Inventory findings. The Inventory includes three modules: (1) Mapping Module; (2) Program Module; and (3) Faculty Module. Each of the four colleges offering early childhood degrees in Rhode Island agreed to participate in the Inventory. This report presents highlights from the three modules of the Inventory, followed by recommendations for addressing the challenges identified in the findings and for building on promising practices. The appendices describe the Inventory methodology and present supplementary tables for both the Program and Faculty Modules. (ERIC).
