About College Certificate - Early Childhood Education
Students in the one-year Certificate program support children's learning, and their development in all areas: physical, social, emotional, cognitive, and language development. The Early Childhood Education Certificate program is the first step in becoming a qualified ECE. Certificate graduates will be eligible for Level I Child Care Services Certification in preschool and school-age care (working with children ages 18 months-12 years). The one-year Certificate is also the same as the first year of the Early Childhood Education Diploma program.
Upon successful completion of the Certificate program, graduates will be able to:
- Support and promote the overall development of children aged 18 months to 12 years.
- Develop and maintain developmentally appropriate programs, and indoor and outdoor environments that reflect best practices.
- Explain variations in the developmental abilities of children aged 18 months to 12 years.
- Maintain caring and responsive relationships with the children in their care.
- Carry out effective and positive behaviour guidance, and discuss challenging behaviour.
- Demonstrate professional behaviour and reflective practice in interactions with children, families and the community.
- Identify and outline provincial child care legislation, standards and policies.
Graduates of the Certificate program will be prepared for employment with organizations providing early learning & child care, or self-employment in the child care field.
