Early childhood education is designed for those who hold teacher certification and have or are seeking careers as classroom teachers (preschool through third grade), child care program directors, or other positions related to the care and education of children ages birth through eight years. Each student’s program is worked out in consultation with an advisor according to the background and needs of the individual student. This online program requires a minimum of 30 hours of graduate credit. The actual credits required for the degree may be more than 30, depending on the amount of previous coursework the student completed. Students can plan programs with their advisors that will enable them to meet the State of Michigan’s requirements for the early childhood endorsement for the elementary teaching certificate. This program complies with the standards set forth by the National Association for the Education of Young Children.
