摘要
The importance of establishing national surveillance systems to monitor physical activity promotion is well recognized. This article outlines the methodological process undertaken to develop an evaluation rubric for assessing state licensing regulations alignment with the National Physical Activity Plan Education Sector Early Childhood Education (ECE) strategy. This tool offers a cost-effective mechanism for ongoing surveillance of ECE physical activity policies, with the potential to inform modifications that promote uniform standards and establish consistent, high-quality opportunities for the nation's youngest children.
