Professional Development Courses

Whether you operate a small home business, take care of a relative's child or work in a large child care center, we have something to offer you. A selection of courses include: child development, caring for infants and toddlers, developing learning tools and teaching resources, planning learning activities for kids, working with children who have special needs, job duties of a child care administrator, and CPR and First Aid. Students can also earn college credit or a Child Development Associate (CDA) credential. Michigan Child Care Futures Project classes are offered and fees vary depending on the length of the class and grant funding. Classes are held at various Oakland County locations as well as online and by correspondence.
