A survey about inclusion of children with disabilities in early-childhood settings was responded to by 172 parents, practicing professionals in early-childhood programs, university-based trainers, and preservice students. Professional competence and importance of skills were rated for five domains: (1) working with families, (2) performance-based assessment, (3) interdisciplinary team functioning, (4) consultation, and (5) challenging behaviors/attention deficits.
