The Early Years Outdoor Play and Learning Certification is a 30-hour, evidence-based micro-credential designed to support Early Childhood Education (ECE) professionals in integrating outdoor play, nature connection, and Land-based learning into their practice. Through ten self-paced modules, participants explore child development in outdoor environments, design and facilitate inclusive play-based learning spaces, incorporate seasonal and Land-based activities, and promote children’s well-being, agency, collaboration, and leadership.
The Certificate is a virtual hybrid program designed for practitioners who engage and support families with young children, prenatal to six. Through a combination of live virtual and recorded sessions, participants will expand and strengthen their knowledge and skills in a number of areas related to infant and early mental health. Building upon the knowledge and experience of participants, the Certificate will delve into a range of topics including the science that supports the importance of infant and early mental health and its impact on lifelong wellness.
This interactive online learning focuses on providing knowledge and strategies to adults who support diverse learners in the early years (for example, preschool and kindergarten).
