The Early Childhood Education Certificate and Diploma Program provides students the necessary skills and knowledge to work with young children and their families in diverse settings. Our program uses a play-based approach, with a focus on positive assets and strength-based perspectives. Practicums are designed to give students the opportunity to apply theory into their practice in early childhood settings. The Diploma program allows for specialization as either an Infant/Toddler Educator or a Special Needs Educator.
Areas of learning include lifespan development; building relationships with children and families; creating curriculum; guiding behaviours; health, safety and nutrition; theories, ethics and philosophies; interpersonal and professional communication; observing and recording; and inclusive and diverse practices. |
| Additional Admission Requirements: | An Early Childhood Education Specialty Certificate or a Certificate in Early Childhood Education from an accredited college is required.
