This program is offered at both our El Reno and Chickasha campuses.
The Early Care and Education program at CVTech is designed to prepare students for employment in child care occupations. The National Accreditation Commission for Early Care and Education Programs (NAC) accredits the on-site Child Development Center, where students will experience rotations with children six weeks through five years of age. Students in this program will begin their portfolio to earn The Child Development Associate (CDA) Credential.
