What is the difference in CDA and CDEC classes?
The CDA is a non-credit credential. It recognizes early childhood professional skills. The CDA is granted nationally by the Council for Early Childhood Professional Recognition. Cisco Junior College offers CDEC classes for college credit. They are child development classes that will lead to a Level one Certificate in Child Care Technology. Continuation in CDEC classes with eighteen hours of academic classes will lead to an Associates Degree in Child Care Technology.
