Kindiedays Academy is a professional development online program consisting of 10 workshops, led by Finnish education specialist Stella Giota. 

❓ What themes or topics are covered in the training?
✅ The Academy includes modules on Finnish early education, holistic learning, observation and documentation, activity planning, child development, and parent collaboration—all based on proven early childhood education principles.

✅ Absolutely. Kindiedays Academy is designed to meet teachers where they are. New teachers gain structure, confidence, and a strong foundation in holistic learning, while experienced teachers discover fresh strategies, new perspectives, and space to reflect on their practices. The live format also encourages peer learning and exchange.

✅ Yes. You’ll have access to progress tracking and certificates, you can easily monitor who has completed which sessions, and you will have all the info you need to support your team and follow up when needed.

Here are more interesting questions we get about Kindiedays Academy:

 

❓ What if a teacher can’t attend one of the live sessions?
✅ Since the sessions aren’t recorded, teachers who miss a session can make it up by attending the same session in the next available cohort, ensuring they still get the full experience.

❓ I manage a preschool in India. Does Kindiedays align with NEP 2020?
✅ Yes! The training promotes play-based, experiential, and holistic learning—core values in NEP 2020. It helps your team understand and implement child-centered practices, documentation, and competency-based planning in alignment with the policy’s vision. Many Indian preschools have already benefited from using it to support NEP-aligned development.

❓ Is the training live or self-paced?
✅ It’s entirely online, delivered as live workshops on a fixed schedule.
Each workshop is 2.5 hours long, with reflection assignments between sessions. This format allows teachers to actively participate, ask questions, and engage with real classroom scenarios—without needing to travel.

❓ Can we use this to onboard new teachers?
✅ Absolutely. Kindiedays Academy is a perfect onboarding tool. It’s a great foundation to ensure everyone understands your educational values and ensures consistency in your educational approach from day one.

❓ Can I use Kindiedays Academy to support my teachers' development?
