Course Description | ECE which comprises childcare for children below the age of four and preschool education for four to six year olds, is an up-and-coming field in career planning. Governments and parents worldwide are investing in early childhood education in view of the increasing number of working mothers and the importance of providing young children with good and proper foundations for development. Government Commitment Governments and parents worldwide are investing heavily in ECE so it has recently become a fast growing business opportunity both at home and overseas. The Malaysian government recognises that the first 3 years of life are critical in the development of children and is therefore committed to providing quality education for its youngest citizens. As a result of this, it is expected that soon only professionally qualified staff will be able to work as early childhood educators. Parents who want to give their children a right headstart in life place them with well-trained professional childcare providers and preschool teachers. Curriculum
