The first international organization that comes to mind in the early childhood education field that I would like to work for would be Parents As Teachers (PAT). This organization is dedicated to families and promoting quality care and education from birth to three years of age. I chose this organization last week as well and would like to be a trainer if I worked for this organization or even in their administrative department.
The second international organization I found appealing to work for was the World Family Organization [WFO] (www.worldfamilyorganization.org). This organization's mission is to "promote means, opportunity, equal rights and chances for women and men to assume their role and functions within the Family and Society, in conditions of freedom, equity, security, and human dignity, and promote policies and actions to bring about better life condition to all families, respecting their diversity and culture" (www.worldfamilyorganization.org). I found their WFO University and Research Centre the most appealing to work in.
The last international organization I chose was the United Nations Education, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). Their mission is to:
provide international leadership to create learning societies with educational opportunities for all populations.
provide expertise and foster partnerships to strengthen national educational leadership and the capacity of countries to offer quality education for all.
work as an intellectual leader, an honest broker and clearing house for ideas, propelling both countries and the international community to accelerate progress towards these goals.
facilitate the development of partnerships and monitors progress, in particular by publishing an annual Global Monitoring Report that tracks the achievements of countries and the international community towards the six Education for All goals (http://www.unesco.org/new/en/education/about-us/how-we-work/mission/).
For this organization I would like to work in the Education department in some capacity.
The skills, knowledge, and experiences I would need to work for these organization would include learning another language; continuing to become culturally competent; staying current on the latest research and issues within the field; and continued work experience in the field of early childhood education.

Toni, I list Parents As Teachers as one of the organizations that I would love to work with one day as well. I love working directly with families to improve the lives of their children. I had never heard of the World Family Organization. It sounds interesting.
