Description:

The Early Childhood Education (ECE) Administrative Leadership program provides an exciting opportunity for further education and specialized training for early childhood educators, with a focus on increasing knowledge and skills in the area of administrative leadership. Students completing the ECE Administrative Leadership program will gain invaluable knowledge to enhance confidence and support career advancement. This knowledge will be utilized to increase educational qualifications as well as provide an incredible opportunity to advance professional certification within the ECE field. Graduates of the advanced diploma (with an ECE Diploma) are eligible for Level III Child Care Services Certification* from the Association of Early Childhood Educators of Newfoundland and Labrador (AECENL). Throughout this program, students will develop leadership skills, particularly those required of a child care administrator for regulated early learning and child care settings. Courses in this program will spark interest in early childhood educators as specific applications of leadership, mentorship, relationship building, human resources, and reflective practice are included. In addition, students will learn about provincial legislative requirements, as well as current and emerging trends within the field of early childhood education.
