After reading a lot on this forum I've become curious about the different types of early childhood education available out there. I went to my local colleges' websites and now I'm a little confused. There are a bunch of different designations - certificates, credentials and degrees.
Can any of you shed some light on what each of these things mean? Is there a national standard, or is it more of a local or state thing?
Obviously the degrees are the more difficult and expensive to obtain, and I'm wondering what they qualify you to do professionally.
I'm also curious as to how the certificates and credentials fit in.
TIA.
