Early Childhood Essentials Micro-credential
This micro-credential would help early childhood educators gain recognition for completing two early childhood courses and developing essential skills. The courses focus on providing high-quality care, supporting child development, improving classroom instruction, and building positive relationships with children. It would offer an alternative way for educators to validate their training and education and could be especially useful for early childhood centers looking for employees with current training.
