The need for highly qualified educators is ever-increasing. After the adoption of the 'No Child Left Behind Act' of 2001, the demand for not only teachers, but teaching assistants has sky-rocketed. With an Associates of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies (ASIS) geared toward the Educational Paraprofessional area, you too can get prepared for a rewarding career in teaching, or childcare.

If working with children or adolescents is something that you are interested in, or if your goal is to obtain a teaching certificate, Kaplan University s Interdisciplinary Studies program will provide you with the wide range of entry-level career choices, while the Educational Paraprofessional courses get you prepared for the classroom and childcare aspects of the profession.

This course may also be for you if you have already obtained college credits from an accredited college or university and are looking to pursue an Associates degree.
