What does it take to get a CDA?

I'm intrested in furthering my Education for Childcare. Should I get my CDA or Associate Degree?

  • I'm 26 and never furthered my education past highschool. Although I haven't worked in a few years, Teaching at Daycares has been my only career. I love careing for young children and plan to get back to teaching soon. I also want to consider getting a certificate or degree when I go back to teaching. I have looked into getting my CDA (Childhood Development Associate Certificate) but really want to take it a step further and work on an associates degree online. Can anyone suggest what degree I should look into? What about online Colleges? There are so many to choose from I get overwhelmed quick! Any idea how long it will take to get an associate degree in early childhood online? What about price? Thanks to anyone who has ANY advice!!

  • Answer:

    Don't try this online! Online programs are not accepted because the student may have cheated by hiring an impostor to take the courses. As a result,ANY online program is considered questionable-even if from a legit school. Child care should require some hands on schooling too, which cannot be done online. You should visit a public community college to sit down with an adviser and talk about your goals. a public community college will offer legit courses that will be far more respected than any for profit school or any online school. It will also offer a greater educational value.
