Another benefit is employment positions after graduation. The potential employment possibilities are very exciting. According to Cooley, the students run the program. There are three levels of involvement. The first group is from Child Psychology.
Students spend two days a week participating in the preschool.
Class time is spent studying child development, preschool curricular planning and a basic introduction to running a day care. The second level is the AP students, who work in the preschool setting five days a week, meeting with Cooley once or twice a week. All students become certified in CPR and test for a Food Handlers Card. Students are responsible for a significant portion of the curriculum and organization. The third level is the work study students.
