Description:

From infancy to toddlerhood, preschool to school-age children and youth, you learn the basics such as child development, mental health support for child adolescence, inclusive education, and working with families and communities. With that skill set you can choose your rewarding career path, from daycare provider to in-classroom educational assistant to interventionist.

This comprehensive 10-month program of study provides you with the skills and knowledge required for your 8-week practicum placement, which in turn allows you to enhance those skills, develop the capability to support students with exceptional needs in a classroom, and connect with prospective employers.
