Louise: Hi, I am Louise Vlasic and I am the full-time faculty in Early Childhood Education.
Thank you for coming here.
I am here to give you some foundational information about the Early Childhood Education program
and that's defined as working with adults
who are working with young children ages birth through age 8.
We have several programs to offer
and I will tell you about them. Thank you.
But first of all I wanted to let you know that
most of our program is an Online Program.
Sara Frizelle (Robot): Yes, Online Learning is similar
to learning in a classroom setting.
You will be reading, interacting in classroom discussions,
writing assignments, and of course, completing some quizzes.
Online classes require basic computer skills of
sending and receiving email, accessing the Internet,
as well as attaching documents.
If Online Learning is not a good match for you
please contact me for other recommendations.

Louise: In the Early Childhood Education program at Everett Community College,
we have three distinct pathways that you can choose.
We have a one year certificate in Early Childhood Education,
a two year Associate in Technical Arts Degree in Early Childhood,
and also we have a Transfer Degree, if you decide
to transfer to a university.
Oh yes, speaking of the university reminds me
that if you have attended another college
you will need to talk to me about getting
an official transcript from that college
sent to Everett Community College.
I imagine by now you are wanting to know
how to begin at Everett Community College.
Well, it's pretty simple.
You will submit an application.
Also, I recommend highly that you find an Advisor,
and I am delighted to be your Advisor
in Early Childhood.
Or other faculty can help you as well.
Also, you will be taking a Placement Test
in Math and English.
And then you can register for classes.
All of this, with the exception of the Placement Test,
can be done online and is easily available
at the Everett Community College web site.
