"The amount of time spent with classrooms and students throughout the program was so beneficial."

  • An opportunity to belong to a community of students and faculty with common interests.
  • Experience with children of all ages and special emphasis on children from birth to nine years.
  • A portfolio of evidence of increasing skill level--a valuable tool in securing professional employment.
