Getting Our Education On!


Last month, eight of our teachers began taking college courses with Jefferson State Community College... right here at UBCDC! Through a new offering from Jeff State's Child Development Program, an instructor comes to our center once every two weeks to teach class. Our teachers are currently pursuing their Child Development Associate credential - or CDA - and, at the rate we're going, they will have completed the program by June 2011.

T.E.A.C.H. awarded scholarships to each of our teachers. T.E.A.C.H., a division of the Alabama Department for Children, will pay 80 % of tuition and books for each of our teachers. We are so excited and blessed!

Be sure to congratulate our teachers as they embark on their college careers in an effort to better themselves and what we do here at UBCDC!
