Early Childhood Education programs are designed for students who want to teach young children.
The curriculum typically focuses on providing students with an understanding of a child’s development years.
Students learn how to creatively align with child development academic standards and how to develop social skills in children while valuing their interests.
Graduates are typically qualified to work with children from birth to 8 years of age.
Students take classes on topics such as literature for young children, psychology, child development, and more.
Many programs also offer students the option of choosing between general Early Childhood Education or a specific concentration.
These programs also include classes for instructors, principals, and paraprofessionals.
