ECH100 — Early Childhood Fundamentals
Students will develop baseline knowledge and skills needed to work with young children in an Early Care and Education Program in Northeast Kansas. Students will complete a Kansas Bureau of Investigation (KBI) background check, and provide a copy of a current physical and TB test. Information covered will serve as the foundation for decisions and practices carried out by professionals in all settings and programs. Students set up their Child Developing Associate (CDA) Professional Portfolio. In addition students will identify the steps involved in preparing for National Child Development Associate (CDA) credentialing. Students unable to pass the KBI inspection, the physical, and the TB test are unable to work with young children. Talk to an advisor about other career options.
