The Early Development Instrument (EDI) is a standardized tool that measures the development of five-year-old children based on children’s social, emotional, physical and intellectual devel-opment. Across the province some 70,000 children have been evaluated and the results of this survey can be found online at www.ecmap.ca

As part of our ongoing commitment to the children of Devon, the programs we offer are being purposefully created with one or more of the five developmental domains in mind. Where you see the symbols by the programs you will know what domains they primarily focus on.

If you have any questions about the EDI, ECMap or the five devel-opmental domains and our programming please contact the FCSS office at 780-987-8325.
