The Early Childhood Education (ECE) program is designed for early childhood teacher training. Upon completion of the certificate of proficiency students may apply for the National Child Development Associate Certificate through a national CDA credentialing agency. If you wish to attain national certification, we recommend that you enroll in ECE 240, Child Development Portfolio and Assessment Preparation. This national certification demonstrates competencies in the following areas:

Planning the program and setting for a center-based early childhood program for 10 to 25 children.
Observing young children.
Involving parents and families.
Enhancing the intellectual and personality development of children.
Conducting programs for the creative and physical development of children.
Developing bilingual programs and crafts programs.
Managing early childhood centers.

The Early Childhood Education Associate is a competent person who assumes primary responsibility for meeting the specific needs of a group of children in a child development setting by nurturing the child's physical, social, emotional and intellectual needs; setting up and maintaining the child care environment; and establishing a liaison relationship between parents and the child development center. Students enrolling in this program are required to attend lab. All labs are taught off campus in an early child care setting. To complete the lab requirements, students must be either employed or volunteering in a formal day care setting, provide or teach preschool in their home, or provide childcare in their home for the minimum number of lab hours required for each ECE course the student is enrolled in.

After completing requirements for the Early Childhood Education Certificate of Proficiency, you can:

Earn a degree in Child Care by completing the additional requirements shown for the Early Childhood Education Associate of Applied Science degree.
Earn an Associate of General Studies degree by completing the 35 credits of General Education requirements, and sufficient electives to total 64 credits.

11/1/07 - Psychology AA Degree - 60806 was revised. The original version follows:

Psychology

Associate of Arts Degree

AA-SR 60806

Advisor:
Jennifer Leaver

This degree specifies courses that satisfy the AGEC transfer pathway for an AA-SR degree. The Psychology courses identified in the Curriculum Requirements and the General Education Requirements also satisfy the preparatory major requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Psychology. Since program requirements differ between universities, the official transfer guide of the school which you plan to attend upon leaving EAC should be consulted in order to adjust this program to your personal needs. This degree also satisfies the needs of students - majors and non-majors - who are interested in psychology primarily as a part of a broad liberal education. In addition, the courses provide a background in psychological principles and techniques to enhance work in other social sciences and in such professional fields as education, business, law enforcement, and health-related fields.

Students often major in psychology to prepare for careers in related fields such as personnel relations, occupational and personal counseling, medicine and dentistry, social and case work, marketing, administration, the legal profession, or counseling and teaching in the public schools. Others plan on graduate work in psychology. Graduate training in psychology prepares you for a career as an academic psychologist (teaching and research), clinical psychologist (mental health centers, institutions, and private practice), industrial and organizational psychologist, and government psychologist (research, administration, testing).

High school preparation should include courses in social sciences as well as the natural sciences (such as biology and chemistry). Two years of high school foreign language study and a proficiency in algebra is highly desirable. In general, the broad liberal arts education that prepares you for college studies is appropriate for majoring in Psychology at Eastern.
