Overview

Teacher candidates are involved in several internship experiences in community and school settings, where they make connections with coursework on assessment and evidence-based practices in early childhood.

As the Early Childhood Education program from Elon University progresses, candidates gain deep content knowledge in language and literacy development, family-team partnerships, emotional and social development, and early intervention. A full semester is dedicated to student teaching in an early childhood setting.

Graduation Outcomes

Graduates of the program will be eligible to receive birth-through-kindergarten licensure from the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction.
