In partnership with the CUNY School for Professional Studies, the New York Early Childhood Professional Development Institute is now offering Child Development Associate (CDA) courses online.

The four CDA courses (12 credits) can be used to earn the CDA credential, as well as the NYS Teacher Assistant Certification Level II, the NYS Early Childhood Teacher Certification Extension, and CTLE hours. These courses easily transfer to the early childhood education associate’s degree programs at BMCC, Hostos College, LaGuardia Community College, and Kingsborough Community College.
