Associate in Applied Science - Early Childhood Education

USA

What will I learn?

Make a difference in the lives of young children, their families and society as a whole. Become an early childhood education professional. At Heartland you enjoy hands-on experience through observation and interaction at the Child Development Lab. Your classes prepare you to assess children's unique needs and then design and implement developmentally appropriate practices to help them flourish.

As a future educator, you'll want to join TEACH-HCC's student education organization. Enjoy unique service learning initiatives that include helping local children with disabilities as they perform in theatre productions through the Penguin Project.

If your goal is to have your own classroom or work as a childcare center director, choose the AAS in Early Childhood Education option.
