Description This practicum provides students with the opportunity to integrate their knowledge, skills, and values in a professional early learning setting. Students apply developmentally appropriate practices, design engaging environments, and demonstrate leadership in supporting children's play, learning, and well-being. Practicum experiences may take one of several forms, including facilitating outdoor and nature-based play environments, operating a student-led preschool program, or completing a supervised workplace practicum in a licensed early learning and child care setting. Students work collaboratively with peers and mentors, engage in reflective practice, and demonstrate professional conduct aligned with Flight: Alberta's Early Learning and Care Framework and the Code of Ethics for Early Childhood Educators. Notes Students must successfully complete CD2020 immediately prior to taking CD2145. Exceptions may be made for online students. Please note that some ELCC/EA courses are condensed in the winter term, leading to varying lengths for both on-campus and EC courses. For specific scheduling details, refer to the Timetable Search.
