As a student of the Early Childhood Education (at Progress Campus) program, your first priority will be to learn how to provide high standards of quality care to children and their families. This School of Community and Health Studies is highly respected, as it will teach you to take responsibility for observing the needs of each individual child and groups of children, and create well-planned and stimulating programs suited to each child’s needs. You will come to understand the learning needs of infants, toddlers, pre-school and school-aged children. Facilitated from Progress Campus, the Early Childhood Education program is a hands-on offering that will include real-world experience at Centennial College’s two early childhood education centers. Used as lab schools, these centers, located in East York and at Progress Camps, will allow you to experience and understand high-quality childcare.
