University College of the North’s Early Childhood Education (ECE) program has gained a five-year full approval from the Province of Manitoba. The program prepares students to care for children in a variety of settings, with a particular focus on the Northern Manitoba and Indigenous community contexts. Program graduates will be eligible to apply for an ECE II license as full Early Childhood Educators. “The Early Childhood Education team at UCN have been practicing and embracing Indigenous ways of knowing, doing, and being in Early Childhood training program since 2007,” said Laura Ayres, UCN ECE Program Coordinator. “It is wonderful to be formally acknowledged.”
