The Preschool Foundation Certificate provides a foundation for early childhood professionals working with young children through five courses. The certificate is stackable within the Early Childhood Education diploma and associate degree.
Upon completion of EDU-119, the student earns the North Carolina Early Childhood Credential and qualifies to be the lead teacher in a child care center. Additionally, all courses with EDU prefixes are used to evaluate the educational level of each child care provider by the North Carolina Division of Child Development and Early Education.
