Early Childhood Special Education Blended Program

Early Childhood Special Education Blended Program

Early Childhood Special Education is a field growing by leaps and bounds. Research has demonstrated its effectiveness and programs are blossoming. At the University of Illinois at Chicago, the Department of Special Education offers an opportunity for certified teachers to earn an approval to teach children with disabilities from birth to 5 years of age.
