The 39 credit hour fully accredited (CAEP) program is composed of professional research and the application of that research through developmentally appropriate field base practices and studies; professional leadership experiences; diverse virtual and on-site observations; and various opportunities to network/learn with and from other early childhood education professionals.
The coursework is offered through online delivery (within Nicholls Online), which incorporates an 8-week term instead of the traditional 16-week semester. Thus, the complete online delivery of this program provides full-time educators with the convenience of working at their own pace and on their own time in the completion of this advanced degree.
