5 credits

Throughout this program, educators have been preparing to embrace their role as an early childhood professional grounded in evidence-based practice, the collaborative nature of the work, and a commitment to fostering positive outcomes for young children and their families. During the competencies that make up this course—the capstone experience—educators update their professional profile, core beliefs, and professional resume; hone their interview proficiency; and create an advocacy plan based on an issue that resonates with their professional goals. During the final competency, educators assess and plan for their ongoing professional development and commitment to working for positive social change for young children, families, and the early childhood field.
