The Associate Degree Program in Early Childhood Education is comprised of twenty comprehensive courses with clear, logical lessons. They are easy to follow, yet challenging and stimulating at the same time. Each lesson begins with a subject matter preview and objectives, and an introductory note from your instructor.

Next come the reading and research assignments. Practice exercises help you check and review what you've learned. You'll take periodic lesson exams with your books and notes open. For your convenience, you may take these online.
