Dear Aseel,

I am interested too in getting a diploma in early childhood teaching, however I could not find a suitable one in Qatar. Thus, I am searching for a good accredited ONLINE degree, from a reputed institution. I wonder if you could help me with this,

All the best,

Hanane.

Thanks for your answers, I do have a bachelor in Dentistry, and diploma in BA and many courses in Computer package. dropped dentistry and working for 14 years in Admin. was employed by a good school, noticed teachers had major in one thing and had PGCE degree that takes a year of study and qualifies to be a prep teacher,, so it is not true that must have 4 years of experience,, anyways, i thought i can get those degree here but it seems better do them online.

Studying at qatar uni. enables to be a teacher for independant govt. school and I dont want arabic teaching

to be an elementary school teacher you need more than a certificate, you will need a Bacherlors of Education degree. That is usually a 4 year degrees, sometimes even 5 years. There is no shortcut.

If you already have a bachelors degree in something else you may be able to find an after degree program that usually takes 2 years to complete.

Qatar University has a B. Ed program, it takes 4 years to complete. If you want, you might be able to find work in a daycare if you want to get a two year Early Childhood Education diploma.

There are no shortcuts when it comes to teaching our children, please! Good schools now that and will be strict about qualifications.

btw: It would be soo worth it for you to get the degree!
