What are my CDA OPTIONS?
While there are lots of places to get CDA training, the training is delivered in three basic ways: through a college or university; through a local approved organization or agency; and online. Some options to earn a CDA include…
- Formal CDA (for college credits)--You can contact Ivy Tech (Rose- 921-4403); there are TEACH (356-6884) scholarship dollars available; the student pay 10% and TEACH pays 90% if they qualify.
- Non-Formal CDA (120 clock hours with no college credits as you go through the process)
Online: You can go to http://www.blogger.com/www.childcareanswers.com ; click on the link across the top that says Provider, then on the CDA link on the right side - the cost is $299 payable prior to starting the class (no scholarships available), students are able to work at their own rate and are able to begin the process at any time.
