Join WestEd in 2025 for comprehensive teacher trainings on the Desired Results Developmental Profile (DRDP), tailored for teachers, administrators, early childhood professionals, and community service providers. All trainings are free and held online.
What Is DRDP?
The DRDP assessment instruments are designed to help teachers observe, document, and reflect on the learning, development, and progress of children from birth through 12 years of age in early care, education programs, and before- and after-school programs. These results empower teachers to plan meaningful curricula both for individual children and for groups, while also guiding continuous program improvement.
