The Early Childhood Education Program is designed to provide the skills needed to secure employment as a teaching assistant in a childcare center, preschool, or elementary school. Students enrolled in the program receive training in the classroom setting and in the on-site licensed childcare facility. Leadership skills are taught through the integration of the FCCLA student organization. Students considering a career in education, child psychology, pediatric medicine, social work, or other child-related occupations are encouraged to enroll in the ECE program.
