Early Childhood Care & Education (ECCE) is designed to prepare students with the necessary skills, knowledge and learning dispositions to be provincially certified as an early childhood educator with a specialty in the care and education of infants and toddlers.
Curriculum is based on current best practices in early learning and care, reflecting the changing needs of children and families in the 21st century. The program focusses on transforming thinking about the education of young children away from the provision of set content to the process of nurturing creative thinking, problem-solving and relationships with and between children.
Theory is brought to life through experiential and place-based learning. The program draws on the strengths of individual learners as it provides a model for supporting the development of dispositions and practices which can, in turn, be supported in working with young children and their families. The program challenges learners to co-create curriculum with children and to design learning environments that embrace the diversity of all children and families including local First Nations, Aboriginal and Inuit peoples.
ECCE prepares students to apply for a BC Early Childhood Educator Certificate to practice in British Columbia.
