Students in British Columbia will have more opportunities to become early childhood caregivers with new programs at Capilano University and Sprott Shaw College. CapilanoU has launched a Bachelor of Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) at its Squamish campus. It is reportedly the only university in Western Canada to offer this degree program and only one of four in the country. Sprott Shaw has launched a free, 45-week ECE basic certificate program. The provincially-funded program will be offered at the college’s Penticton campus and will include a hands-on learning component through a practicum.
