Credentialing for teaching at the pre-kindergarten level.

- File
for an American River College Early Childhood Education Certificate
that leads to a Child Development Permit, with the expectation
of completing the required coursework by the semester end.
- Pick
up a Child Development Permit application from the
Lower Library from any ECE faculty member.
- Complete
the application, which includes a Livescan fingerprint approval,
and meet with any of these professors to have them review
your application: Alina Cervantes, Lorraine Chow,
Jan DeLapp, Anne Kress, Craig Lehman, Mary Jane Maguire-Fong,
or Dixie Thomas. Check for monthly permit processing sessions
or make an appointment.
- Submit
your application to the Child Development Training Consortium.
The Child Development Training Consortium operates a state-funded
project that will cover the application fee for many Child Development
Permits. Your Early Childhood Education faculty advisor
will help you determine whether your application may be included
in this project.
