Interested in college credit for in-service training, bachelors or masters degree?

Interested in college credit for in-service training, bachelors or masters degree?


Dear Early Care and Education Community,

The University of Dayton is offering a new on-line program in Early Childhood Leadership and Advocacy. If you are interested, please check out the following websites:
Master's Degree
http://www.udayton.edu/education/areas_of_study/ then scroll down to Master of Science Degree in Education with a Concentration in Early Childhood Leadership and Advocacy
Bachelor's Degree
http://www.udayton.edu/education/areas_of_study/ then scroll down to Early Childhood Leadership and Advocacy

We offer a certificate as well.

You must first apply to the University and to do that you can go to http://registration.udayton.edu/registration.asp and follow the directions.

Interested parties should remember that these programs accept job-related workshop credit (i.e. ODE, SUTQ, Head Start....). If you are interested in converting your required training to workshop credit, see below for more
information.

Have you been wondering what to do with all those in-service hours?

Well, I have the answer! Bring them to the University of Dayton! Really, UD is accepting in-service training towards your degree or even for renewal of your teaching license. If you have 15 clock hours of in-service training at
any of the "specialty training" areas listed below or similar ones if you are out of state then you can get college credit. You can get up to 12 semester hours of credit for undergraduates and 6 at the graduate level. In-service hours must not be older than five years. So if it is time to renew your teaching license here is an option towards earning college credit for all the time and effort you have put into in-service training. If you want to work on a degree this is one way to collect credit hours towards a bachelor's degree. The cost per semester credit hours (in-service only) is $250 per credit hour. (15 in-service clock hours =1 semester credit)
Those of you working towards masters can apply for up to 6 semester hours.

Workshop Credit (up to 12 semester hours) in required "specialty training" areas. Register for workshop credit through the Bombeck Center at (937)229-2158

4C Leadership Institute, Step Up to Quality, State Early Reading Initiative (SERI), Infant Toddler Guideline, Early Learning Initiative, Early Learning Content Standards, * Other as approved
by ODE, ODJFS, OCCRA or by program advisor/coordinator UD Workshop Credit for Specialty Training = 12 semester hours
