Associate in Arts in Early Childhood Education |
This certificate program is designed to support and increase the competencies
of those working directly with school-age children in after school group
settings. The series of courses and fieldwork experience will acquaint the
practitioner with the Standards for Quality School-Age distribution by the
National School-Age Care Alliance. Developmental understandings of the
school-age child leading to appropriate curriculum planning will combine with
on-site fieldwork supervision (all fieldwork will be completed at the student’s
work site pending approval of their supervisor). All early childhood education
courses must be completed with a grade of “C” or better. Students may not repeat
any early childhood education course more than twice.
