Child Development - Infant/Toddler | Cert

This certificate is designed to help you become a trained child care assistant with an infant/toddler focus. The following classes are the recommended courses if you are working toward a Child Development Associate® (CDA) Credential™.

CDA®, administered by the Council for Professional Recognition, is a nationally recognized credential for early childhood educators who understand and are able to put into practice core competencies for working with young children. Completing these courses does not give you a CDA® Credential; these courses fulfill the educational component of the national CDA® credentialing program. You must complete additional requirements and apply to the Council for Professional Recognition in Washington, DC to earn the CDA® Credential.
