Associate Degree in Education
The Education Department offers two Associate Degrees:
Early Childhood / Mild Intervention Associate Degree
The Early Childhood/Mild Intervention Associate Degree prepares students to care for and teach children ages birth through 7 in both early intervention and regular education settings.
This Associate Degree is often considered a “stepping stone” for students who wish to continue their studies for a baccalaureate degree. Two bachelor’s degree programs are built on the EC/MI associate degree, Early Childhood/Mild Intervention (non-license) and Preschool-Grade 3/Mild Intervention teaching license [P-3/MI].
Kindergarten-Grade 6 Education Associate Degree
The Kindergarten-Grade 6 Education Associate Degree prepares students to assist in teaching children in regular education settings. Generally students with this degree are in the role of a paraeducator or paraprofessional.
The Kindergarten-Grade 6 Education Associate Degree is often considered a “stepping stone” for students who wish to continue their studies for a Kindergarten-Grade 6 Education baccalaureate degree and a teaching license. Two bachelor’s degree programs are built on the K-Grade 6 associate degree, Kindergarten-Grade 6 with Minor and Kindergarten-Grade 6/Mild Intervention.
