Find out how Sheridan programs will be delivered next semester: View Winter 2023 Program Delivery Modes.
All full-time domestic students enrolled in our September 2022 or January 2023 ECE intake are eligible to receive a grant of up to $2,000, with the possibility of an additional $2,000 if you successfully complete the program within 16 consecutive months of study.
This opportunity is funded in partnership with the City of Toronto, The Region of Peel, The Region of Durham, The Region of Halton, the Province of Ontario and Government of Canada under the new Canada–Ontario Early Childhood Workforce Agreement, which provides “one-time federal funding to support the retention and recruitment of a high-quality child care and early years workforce.”
Make a difference. Help young children reach their potential.
Program Overview
State-of-the-art education
You'll learn from our highly qualified professors who have strong academic backgrounds and extensive experience working with young children, their families and the community. Our uniquely designed curriculum room will encourage and support your learning by providing hands-on experiences in a simulated early learning classroom.
What you'll learn
- Best practices for supporting young children's learning and development
- Current issues and theories of child development
- Roles and responsibilities of the early childhood educator
- Curriculum theory and approaches
- Programming for infants, toddlers, preschoolers and school-age children
- Professionalism and advocacy in early childhood education
Field placements
You'll have the chance to transfer your learning into practice by completing three different field placements in a variety of settings which may include Sheridan's highly acclaimed childcare centres, before and after school care, kindergarten classrooms or other early learning settings.
Outstanding career preparation
Our ECE program focuses on applying research-based theory to practical experiences that encourage young children’s learning, growth and development.
When you graduate from this program, you'll be eligible to become a registered member of the College of Early Childhood Educators (CECE), a requirement for practice in the province of Ontario. Graduates may also continue their education in degree-level studies through Sheridan's Bachelor of Early Childhood Leadership program or at other Canadian universities or abroad.
Flexible learning
The ECE program offers course-based registration, which allows you to create your own timetable (based on course availability) by selecting the days/times that work best for you. You can choose to take a full-time course load or study part-time during the day or evening.
Please note that the courses offered in the part-time option are identical to those in the full-time option, and the graduation requirements are the same. However, it will take you longer to complete the diploma on a part-time basis and there may be financial implications to consider. If you are unsure of the financial or academic consequences of attending part-time, you should contact the Program Academic Advisor, the Office of the Registrar or the Student Advisement Centre for more information.Explore your future classroom

Field Placements
The Early Childhood Education program includes three mandatory field placements where you’ll have the opportunity to apply what you’ve learned in class. You could work in a childcare centre, before and after school care, a kindergarten classroom or another early learning setting.
Criminal Record Check and Immunization Requirements
Sheridan field placement agencies require a police record check for criminal offences, including a vulnerable sector check and a current acceptable record of immunization.
Your field placement site will require you to provide a current, acceptable and valid police check, including a vulnerable sector check, and an up-to-date health clearance and immunization record.
Many of our field placement sites also require that students be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Students must follow the COVID-19 vaccination policy of the field placement site they are attending.
Students who cannot meet these requirements will have limited field placement opportunities and may be unable to progress or graduate from the program. This may also impact future career opportunities in the profession.
