CCBC’s Child Development Associate educational opportunity fulfills the formal coursework portion of the CDA credentialing process. After completion of the required coursework, the student is eligible to apply to the Council for Professional Recognition to continue the assessment and credentialing process. The program includes a series of courses that will prepare students and professionals alike to sit for exams leading to certificates as a Preschool Child Development Associate (P-CDA) or an Infant/Toddler Child Development Associate (I/T-CDA). Each preparatory sequence consists of three, 3-credit courses needed to meet the requirements of the Child Development Associate National Credentialing Program. Also, by completing four courses, the student can prepare for the exams for both credentials. Upon completion of the program, students are prepared for the CDA assessment. These nine credits can also transfer into our degree program to have you well on your way towards earning an Early Childhood Education Associate in Applied Science Degree.
