Considering a #career in childcare? Are you a current provider looking to advance your qualifications? The Child Development Associate (CDA) Credential is a nationally recognized and valuable asset for anyone working with young children in Kentucky. Not only does it demonstrate your commitment to #early-childhood-education, but it also unlocks a range of benefits for both you and the children you care for.
Why Choose the CDA?
The CDA goes beyond basic training. It provides a comprehensive understanding of child #development, best practices in #early-learning, and effective communication with children and families. Earning your CDA elevates your professional standing and qualifies you for:
- Higher Earning Potential: Many childcare centers in Kentucky offer increased salaries or leadership positions to CDA-credentialed #staff.
- Career Advancement: The CDA places you on Levels II and III of the Kentucky Early Childhood (EC) Core Content Level, opening doors to new career opportunities.
- Director Qualifications: For Type I and II child care centers in Kentucky, a CDA Credential can meet the director's education requirements.
