AAS in Early Childhood Educator at Metropolitan Community College
The Early Childhood Educator program prepares the student for employment as a head teacher or director of childcare facilities. Learning opportunities center around curriculum planning, managing and teaching within a childcare facility. Skills essential to working with parents and children in a variety of settings and activities are stressed. – The individual who is considering going into the field of early childhood education should be aware that checks with the Adult and Child Abuse Registries are conducted before employment is offered. Such checks are also done on an individual enrolled in practicum courses. This practice is consistent with Nebraska State Statutes.
