If you want to make a difference in the development of children, our certificate program can help. The growing number of working parents has created a greater need for skilled caregivers of young children.* Our professional lead teacher program can train you in guiding and shaping young children from birth to eight years old, serving as a role model, and supporting the parents of these children. Hands-on, lab-based courses and real-life exposure to children in licensed childcare facilities can give you the training you need for a career in childcare.
Upon successful completion of the program graduates are awarded a certificate.
