Career Opportunities

Sometimes, earning a degree can be child’s play. Teaching is serious business. But it’s kid’s stuff. That’s because good teachers know that some of the best learning takes place through play. The Child Development program at Cuyamaca College will encourage your playful creativity while preparing you with integral courses such as Science, Mathematics, Language, and Literature. Our curriculum is designed for future teachers, directors, and aides in preschool and day care centers and parents who want to learn more about growth and development. Or you can earn an Associate degree, certificate, or transfer for a bachelor’s degree in Child Development. If you’re considering a career in teaching, give us a call. Then get ready to work hard. And play hard, too. Call Gloria Ensey at 660-4509 for more information.
