Special Education| Early Childhood Special Eduction

In keeping with New York State regulations, candidates who wish to become early childhood special educators must also hold content core certification in early childhood (birth thru grade 2)

Program of Study
We offer four programs; each designed to meet the unique needs of candidates who have had different levels of preparation. All programs are offered at our Garden City and Manhattan campuses.

Note: These programs are not available for candidates who hold initial certification in early childhood special education. Students with such certification must take a graduate program leading to a different certification, such as childhood special education, literacy or TESOL, in order to achieve professional certification.

Candidates should meet with the program director for recommended course sequences, fieldwork, and other program requirements.
