Knock Focus Area 1 and Focus Area 2 Out of the Park

Is your Early Head Start or Head Start program ready to knock Focus Area 1 and Focus Area 2 out of the park? With the revised performance standards raising the bar, it’s time to ensure your team is prepared to shine—whether it’s a virtual FA1, an in-person FA2 review assessment, or an unannounced visit.

We’re here to help you turn preparation into power with engaging, hands-on mock trainings led by a team with over 20 years of Head Start expertise—including experience as a former Early Head Start/Head Start director and a current federal reviewer. We know the review process inside and out, from virtual settings to on-site deep dives.

Here’s what we offer to make sure your program stands out:

  1. Data Tours Done Right: We’ll help you showcase your program’s data systems with confidence! Whether it’s child outcomes, family engagement, or program monitoring, your team will learn to tell a compelling story with your data that shows excellence in action.
  2. Interviewing with Impact: Does your team know how to nail the tough questions? We’ll make sure they’re not just prepared—they’re empowered. Whether it’s virtual interviews for FA1 or face-to-face discussions for FA2, we’ll train your staff to communicate the heart and success of your program with clarity and confidence.
  3. Systems That Impress: When it comes to Head Start, systems matter. We’ll help you ensure that everything—HR, fiscal, governance, program services—is working together like a dream. Reviewers will see not just compliance, but a program that’s running on all cylinders and setting the standard for excellence. Systems Alignment: Make sure your program’s systems—HR, fiscal management, program design, and services—are integrated and running like a well-oiled machine. We’ll help you demonstrate seamless coordination that aligns with the new standards and reflects the quality of your program.
  4. Unannounced Readiness: Stay one step ahead with unannounced review prep. We’ll ensure that your program is always in compliance and ready for review at any moment, reducing stress and building confidence across your team.

With our deep knowledge, dynamic training, and passion for helping Head Start programs thrive, we’ll equip your team with everything they need to dominate every aspect of Focus Area 1 and 2. From data tours to interviews, systems to unannounced readiness—we’ve got you covered.

Let’s turn preparation into excellence! Prepare. Perform. Progress.
