Rio Salado College has established an Early Childhood Program that serves undergraduate students and provides professional development for early childhood practitioners employed in early childhood non-certified settings. The educational pathway for Early Childhood meets standards established by the AZ SUCCEEDS Practitioner Career Levels.

The Rio Salado Early Childhood Program provides multiple opportunities for career entry or career professional development. The programs are designed to be incremental and sequential – one level is incorporated into the next level. At Rio Salado it is important that we assist the early childhood professional to move from one educational level to the next without loss of credit.
