Child Growth and Development: 45 Hours

(4.5 CEUs) Study the growth and development of children from birth to adolescence. This course will satisfy one half of the requirement for 90 hours of classroom training for directors and senior staff in child care centers. If taking the online course, the final assessment will be done in the testing center. Full participation is required for the online course. Text required at first class. Note: Students must take "Child Growth and Development: 45 Hours" (DCR-303) before "Curriculum/Activities: 45 Hours" (DCR-304). You may skip DCR-303 and go straight to DCR-304 if you have taken Child Growth and Development for credit or you have been granted a waiver from the Office of Child Care (301-333-6940) for a psychology course you took for credit. See the Distance Learning section of the PGCC schedule booklet for orientation information. This course uses Blackboard.
