Preview: EarlyDay's Limited Michigan Educator Profile Pilot

Availability: This is a preview of a limited Michigan pilot, not a statewide educator directory. Ask EarlyDay about current participation and employer access.

EarlyDay's limited Michigan profile pilot explores how selected educator profiles could introduce professional experience to employers. Participation is limited, and profile visibility follows the pilot's eligibility and privacy rules. This guide describes the concept without reproducing any educator's personal profile.

What is the pilot intended to explore?

The pilot is designed to help an employer understand a participating educator's professional background before moving into the established EarlyDay account experience. A public profile is an introduction. It is not the full authenticated profile, a hiring recommendation or a promise that the educator is available for a particular job.

Public directory pages are part of the discovery concept, but their presence depends on an eligible participating cohort. A location name alone should not imply that EarlyDay has a broad supply of available candidates in that city.

Why do publication boundaries matter?

An educator's professional information belongs in a defined visibility context. The pilot uses eligibility rules and an explicit public-data selection rather than treating an existing account as permission to expose everything in it. Information not approved for the public experience should remain outside that experience.

Keep any profile information you review within your program’s approved hiring process. Public visibility does not establish permission to reuse an educator’s identity or photo in promotional materials.

What should employers expect next?

The pilot's public calls to action lead toward employer registration. They do not, by themselves, establish a messaging entitlement or guarantee that a message will be completed after signup. Employers should use the account experience and ask the EarlyDay team about the capabilities available to them.

Use a profile to prepare a relevant conversation. Ask about the educator's interest in the specific role, available hours, and experience with the age group. Continue with the program's normal review and required checks rather than treating public visibility as a hiring recommendation.

Frequently asked questions

Does the pilot publish every educator in Michigan?

No. It concerns an explicitly selected, limited cohort governed by eligibility and privacy conditions. It should not be presented as statewide public-profile availability.

Does a profile guarantee an educator is available for my opening?

No. Employers need to discuss the specific role and complete their normal review and required checks.

Can our team see how the experience works?

Ask EarlyDay about the pilot's current status and an approved demonstration. Do not assume that a public pilot is available for every employer or educator.
