Administrative Efficiency

Shared services can handle common administrative functions, such as: payroll, human resources, purchasing, and financial management. Additionally, providers save time by the streamlined provision of digital curriculum, assessment, and professional development. This centralization reduces duplication of effort and can lead to cost savings and more streamlined processes.
Quality Improvement

By joining a shared service organization, providers can access higher quality resources and training programs for their staff. This can include digital resources, such as: curriculum, professional development, and support in your state's QRIS, quality initiatives, and state standards.
Purchasing Power

Through the shared services partnership, Learning Beyond Paper can provide the most cost-effective solutions and yield the best return on investment for your high-quality, unique digital curriculum needs.
Shared Knowledge and Best Practices

As a partner with shared services, Learning Beyond Paper can foster a community among users for dynamic engagement that enhances our digital solutions in real-time to meet users' unique and evolving needs. This collaboration can significantly impact and enhance educational practices - from the director to the teacher to the child to the family.
Save Time & Money

Learning Beyond Paper saves directors and teachers precious time. With 52 weeks of lesson plans, more than 4,000 daily activities in a developmental progression, built-in on-boarding, professional development, training, teacher support videos, Spanish and more, directors and teachers save time. Teachers alone save an average of 3 hours per week.
Retain Your Workforce

Happy and supported teachers stay longer. Learning Beyond Paper is committed to building teacher capacity and supporting teacher autonomy. By providing resources right at their fingertips, early childhood educators are supported in real-time. Robust teacher resources provide the "why" behind every activity and encourage high-quality teacher-child interactions. We meet teachers where they are, tailoring professional development to meet their individual needs.
Learning Beyond University

Our professional learning workshops are thoughtfully designed around top-tier early childhood education methodologies, emphasizing crucial aspects such as Emotional Support, Classroom Organization, and Instructional Support. These sessions align with the CLASS® framework and are offered in both English and Spanish to accommodate all educators. To gauge the effectiveness of our training, we conduct comprehensive assessments before and after each course, confirming that our programs deliver measurable enhancements in teaching quality. Learning Beyond Paper courses are TECPDS approved.
