Leadership in Childcare

Alabama’s community colleges seek to provide students with quality education in order to provide the skills and knowledge needed to teach and work with young children. If you work in a licensed or exempt from licensure child care facility in the state, then you may qualify for the Leadership in Child Care Scholarship to help fund your education at an Alabama community college or Athens State University.

This scholarship, which is made available from funding by the Alabama Department of Human Resources, provides students with the opportunity to pursue several different credentials and degrees in Child Development/Early Care and Education/Early Childhood Education studies at a community college or at Athens State.
