Education
Associate of Applied Science
Motlow State Community College, as part of the Tennessee Board of Regents’ early childhood initiative, offers courses leading to the Associate of Applied Science in Early Childhood Education. The purpose of this major is to create a Head Start statewide early childhood academic degree and professional/career development model that support the Head Start Reauthorization Act degree requirements for Head Start teachers/staff. This initiative builds on the established Tennessee Early Childhood Training Alliance (TECTA) model. The academic coursework and clinical practicum’s prepare students for CDA (Child Development Associate) assessment and credentialing. The major is not limited to Head Start personnel but is open to all persons, including paraprofessionals, wishing to gain professional expertise in the education and care of children from infant through age eight.
