Bachelor's Degree
This program is designed to equip students with the skills needed to specialize in teaching children from birth through third grade. Since it's under 60 credits, students must pair it with a minor or additional major. Those pursuing early childhood education certification must fulfill all Teacher Certification and Professional Education Program requirements. Completion of EDEC 492 and EDEC 493 (minimum 12 credits) with satisfactory grades is required before student teaching. Full admission to the major is mandatory before starting the six-quarter course sequence. For any courses involving field experience, students must maintain current WSP and FBI fingerprint/background clearances on file with CWU.
