Overview
This online graduate certificate (7 course) program has been designed to meet the needs of individuals who have already received their Early Childhood Education Diploma (or equivalency granted by the Association of Early Childhood Educators of Ontario, AECEO), and who wish to pursue professional specialization.

The learning process is aimed at developing competent professional members of a transdisciplinary team. Faculty act as resource persons to facilitate the student’s progress through the program. Field work experiences take place in integrated settings, with families and community agencies and are a required component of the certificate program.

Learning Outcomes
Learning Outcomes
Learning outcomes represent culminating demonstrations of learning and achievement. In addition, learning outcomes are interrelated and cannot be viewed in isolation of one another. As such, they should be viewed as a comprehensive whole. They describe performances that demonstrate that significant integrated learning by graduates of the program has been achieved.
