The Early
Childhood Education and Education Departments
provide comprehensive college-training for persons who enjoy
working
with children with ages ranging from birth though eight
year olds. Early childhood
education is receiving national attention
due to recent research on brain development
which is causing new national, state and local initiatives to be developed for child
care programs, agencies, community colleges, and four year institutions.
Chattanooga State has recently completed a transfer
agreement with the education department at Dalton State College in
Dalton, GA. The agreement benefits students that wish to pursue
Pre-K – 5 teaching certification. After completing two years at
Chattanooga State, students can transfer to Dalton State to complete
a B.S. degree in Early Childhood Education. The agreement is
especially beneficial to students in Bradley and Hamilton Counties
because residents of these counties pay in-state tuition rates at
Dalton State. Dalton State offers additional course work that can
lead to an ESOL endorsement or middle school certification.
