Massasoit - Policies Regarding the Child Care Education Program

Child Care Education & Administration
The Child Care Education and Administration department has designed a comprehensive career program for students interested in working with young children. The program will prepare students for Department of Early Education and Care (EEC) certification as Lead Teacher, and after six months of work experience, as a Director in a child care setting. The program will help students develop the knowledge, skills, and understanding needed to work effectively in a multi-cultural society. The curriculum is designed to meet the standards of the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
