Experience Details
The Early Childhood Education (ECE) Pre-Apprenticeship offers a FREE opportunity to help high school & CTE students continue with higher education, help them apply for funding to cover the cost of the Child Development Associate (CDA) exam, and it can open the door to employment opportunities. Each successful Pre-Apprentice is guaranteed an interview with the Early Childhood Education Apprenticeship Program to discuss their education goals! They will also have entry-level opportunities in the childcare industry and be connected with job outreach events & information.
The Pre-Apprenticeship Program Coordinator would be thrilled to present on this programming to ECE focused high school and CTE students and to discuss with ECE classrooms how the programming can support ECE focused students on their ECE career pathway.
