the supervision of classroom teachers. You will experience "real" classroom
activities with "real"
children in a "full functioning" classroom with "actual" teachers.
By enrolling in this program you may earn the required clock hours needed
to qualify for the national Child Development Associate (CDA) credential.
If you truly enjoy working with children, then this is the program for you.
