  • Learning Point 01

                                   

    Obtain both a childcare worker and kindergarten teacher qualification!

    By obtaining two qualifications, you can broaden your knowledge. Also, by learning the skills required for each qualification,
    This will help you develop greater expertise in children and childcare, which will also be an advantage for you.

    By studying the specialized skills of kindergarten teachers and childcare workers in parallel, students can gain a deeper understanding of the differences in their social roles, which will lead to increased expertise as childcare workers.

    In recent years, the number of "certified child care centers" that combine kindergartens and nursery schools has been increasing, and it is considered desirable for staff to hold qualifications as both kindergarten teachers and nursery school teachers, allowing them to work as child care workers who meet the needs of society.
