Testimonial

Adebola Adefioye

“The Early Childhood Education diploma program is a good foundation for my Honours Bachelor of Child Development degree program because I learned some of the major theories in the diploma program which helped to strengthen my knowledge for the degree. I also understood clearly my learning style while studying early childhood education, so I improved on key areas in the Honours Bachelor of Child Development program.”
