Current job market information shows that over the next 10 years, employment growth in early<br />
childhood education (ECE) is projected to be above the average for all occupations. Join this growing<br />
field by learning to provide high standards of care to children and their families through observing<br />
individual and group needs of infants, toddlers, pre-school and school-aged children, and creating<br />
well-planned, stimulating and responsive programs. Rich classroom experiences will include various<br />
opportunities to understand the curriculum. In two ECE centres used as lab schools, you will observe<br />
and practice in a childcare setting. You will also participate in experiential learning through three<br />
community field placements.<br />
Note: This program is taught using a combination of modalities. Courses may be taught face-to-face, online or in blended/hybrid<br />
combination of both online and traditional classroom teaching.<br />
