Program Spotlight
Early Childhood Education
Do you have a passion to help children get a head start in their social, emotional, and educational development?
Do you want a career that is rewarding and in-demand?
Studies have shown that children who learn in a safe and supportive environment at a young age go on to become successful in their teen years and later into adulthood.
If you answered yes to both questions, Academy Canada’s Early Childhood Education program is a perfect fit for you.
Students will learn how to create age and ability related programs, and also learning settings that are suitable for a child’s development stage.
Through both classroom instruction and practicum placements, students will also learn how to create settings that promote social and emotional development suitable for children in each development stage; how to maintain a healthy, safe, welcoming and supportive environment for all children;, and how to develop a warm and welcoming relationship with an individual child as well as with a group of children.
One year, two year bridging, and two year training options are available. Graduates can also transfer credits towards an Early Childhood Education Advanced Diploma at College of the North Atlantic.
Career opportunities are available in private and public childcare settings, family resource programs, home based childcare settings, and schools.
What are you waiting for?
Turn your passion for giving children a head start in life with Academy Canada’s Early Childhood Education program today.
