BS in Early Childhood Development
Early childhood development has been shown to influence everything from performance at school to crime and health.* An educated childcare workforce could help improve children’s outcomes in school and throughout life. Kaplan University’s Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Development is a nonlicensure program designed to prepare you to work in early childhood settings with children from birth through age 8.† Kaplan University’s career-driven program is taught by instructors with years of experience in early childhood development who will teach you about growth and development, applied theory, ethics and professionalism, children in the inclusive classroom, health and nutrition, and lesson planning and implementation.
