Successful completion of the Early Childhood Education Program requires internships and site visits each semester at children s day care facilities. The Maine Department of Human Services will not permit a student to participate in such activities if the student does not satisfy the Department s licensing criteria. Accordingly, a prerequisite for participation in the Early Childhood Education Program is a student s ability to meet the Department of Human Services criteria. The criteria are designed to identify individuals whose actions or practices, in the past, could be deemed detrimental to the welfare of children. This allows them to enter with junior status.
Credits often transfer to other colleges with similar programs.
