2 Program Description: The Early Childhood Education Diploma Program is an academic two-year, fulltime program of study that prepares students to provide culturally-relevant, quality childcare in a Nunavut community setting for children from infancy to age 6. Along with 16 academic courses, this program requires four supervised practicum experiences and seminars that progressively develop skills based in experience at a variety of early childhood programs. Students will examine early childhood education practice based on principles of: Child-centred, play-based theory Inclusion Child development Family and community relations Professionalism Guidance Communications An emergent curriculum approach is taught as an approach in early childhood development that builds on the interests of children and the importance of working closely with families and communities. Emergent curriculum requires skills in observation, documentation, creativity and flexibility. Additionally, the program is based on the study of child development with a developmental health perspective. Current research in important areas of early child development will be explored and incorporated with Inuit knowledge and Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit Guiding Principles. The learning and assessment process is meaningful and connected to the Nunavut childcare workplace through multi-faceted techniques including: readings, written assignments, mixed media, culturally relevant sources, reflective practice, portfolio development and small group assignments. The program delivery addresses student academic and personal needs: building communications, critical- reasoning and selfmanagement skills within each course. Successful candidates will receive an ECE Diploma, indicating their qualifications to develop, deliver and provide leadership in early childhood education programming that stimulates the intellectual, physical, emotional and social development of young children.

3 Inuit Qaujimaningit: The 8 Inuit Qaujimajatuqangit guiding principles for delivery and course content are connected by program delivery to practices of quality early childhood education in Canada as defined by National Occupational Standards. Two of the required courses in ECE Diploma (Pisimatijiunirmik Ilinniarniq 1 and 2) are based on Inuit theories of child development and practice. The Diploma Program involves Inuit elders, cultural and linguistic experts and knowledgeable community members as integral members of the program delivery team; as teachers in specific courses, mentors and as guest instructors and advisors. A significant part of the program content is delivered by experts in Inuit culture and language including teachings in traditional Inuit child rearing, Inuit values, storytelling, games, songs and toy-making. Inuit educators, artists and cultural specialists are integrated into course development and delivery. The ECE Program integrates Inuit early childhood development research from the knowledge of Inuit elders and cultural experts including Government of Nunavut s Department of Education ECE/Kindergarten Curriculum, Qaujigiartiit Health Research Centre s Inunnguiniq Parenting Program and Pauktuutit Inuit Women of Canada s Piaranut For Our Children.
