Career Opportunities
This program provides preparation for employment in child development programs, public and private preschools, and children's centers. The program meets the course requirements for teachers and directors in private child development centers licensed by the California State Department of Social Services, and the Children's Center Instructional Permit issued by the Teacher Credentialing Commission for teachers in public preschools and children's centers. Upon completion of the Associate in Arts with a major in Early Childhood Education, plus the requirements for a Site Supervisor Certificate, students would be eligible for the Site Supervisor Child Development Permit. The Infant Care Option provides more focused training for those wishing to work with infants. The School Age Child Care program is designed for those desiring to work with older children. The Associate Teacher, Teacher, Master Teacher, and Site Supervisor Certificates are aligned with the Child Development Permits issued by California's Commission on Teacher Credentialing (January 1997). California law requires that teachers in state-funded child care and development centers possess a Child Development Permit. The School-Age Assistant, Associate, Teacher, Master Teacher, and Site Supervisor are aligned with the Child Development Permit Matrix. In addition, Early Childhood Education offers a Teacher Preparation Program that is articulated with California State University, Sacramento.

The following certificates and degrees (Associate Teacher, Teacher, Master Teacher, and Site Supervisor) are aligned with the Child Development Permit matrix issued by the Commission on Teacher Credentialing.
