Chris Counts Down to Graduation


  AN EXCERPT FROM ONTARIO COLLEGES WEBSITE,  IN CASE YOU WONDERED WHAT AN ECE IS...  .

What to expect from a career as an Early Childhood Educator

Teaching at any level is a rewarding career, but early childhood teachers have a special opportunity to help children in their earliest stages. Early childhood education programs at Ontario colleges teach students the skills they need to get children started on a successful journey through the education system.

Early childhood education training is structured to teach both the theoretical and practical sides of early childhood development (children 12 and under).

You will learn about basic health, safety and behaviour as well as how to understand children's environments and early learning mechanisms. You will also learn to plan early childhood education curriculums for a variety of levels, and will develop your writing and communication skills to work with children, parents, and members of the education and teaching system.

ECE programs have extensive field placement opportunities, placing students in preschools, child care programs, hospitals and kindergartens for real-world experience.
