Credentialing
Upon graduation from our program, you will receive your U.S. Career Institute Certificate of Completion attesting to your accomplishment. Depending on the career path you choose to pursue you may be required to obtain the Child Development Associate Credential (CDA) through the Child Development Associate National Credentialing Program. The CDA is designed to prepare you to either own your own day care or work in an already established day care. USCI’s program meets the academic requirements needed to become certified with the CDA; however, you will need to verify all requirements needed to take the CDA credential.
