LACC’s Child Development curriculum is aligned with the state’s permit matrix to prepare students for positions in early childhood teaching and administration. Students are trained as educators for a variety of private and public early childhood education programs including Head Start, State Pre-School, and unified school district children’s center programs. Graduates teach or administer in programs for infants, pre-schoolers, school-age children, and children with special needs in before- and afterschool programs. Many students begin their career as assistant teachers, and with additional coursework and experience, move up the career ladder to head teachers or site supervisors. Professionals in this field can expect to make between $14,000 - $35,000 annually. Those who continue their education at a four-year university can typically increase their earnings to the mid-$50,000 range. - 72 - DEGREE PROGRAMS Students wishing to prepare for employment in early childhood programs, and those currently employed may select several alternative patterns of study in the Child Development Program. The curriculum prepares students to teach or administer programs for young children, including: Private Early Childhood Programs, Head Start, other publicly supported programs, Infant and School Age Programs, inclusion programs and children with special needs. Courses allow the student to prepare for increasingly higher levels of employment and certification. It is possible to prepare for the educational requirements of the State Department of Social Services, the California Child Development Permit, the Associate in Arts Degree in Child Development or the Transfer Program. Students wishing to transfer to California State University Los Angeles may inquire in the department office(AD 200) about the AA to BA cohort transfer program. The AA to BA program is specifically designed to support students to achieve their educational goals.
