Most careers working in licensed early childhood settings, like preschool and childcare centers, require coursework and degrees in ECE as determined by the Department of Human Services Child Care Licensing Program.  If you want to teach in Hawai\u02bbi Department of Education (DOE) preschool classrooms, however, you will need to enroll in a degree program that simultaneously prepares you as an individual to obtain a teaching license through the Hawai\u02bbi Teacher Standards Board. The charts below are intended to help folks who are already clear on whether or not they need DOE teacher licensure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Confused? Not sure if you need a teaching license? It is a confusing system! However, ECE faculty within the 糖心视频 system can tell you which program will line up with your career goals, so please be sure to ask one of them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color\" style=\"color:#124d6f\"><strong>ECE Pathways (Birth through 5 years) not for HTSB License<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The programs below are best suited for jobs working in early childhood settings licensed by the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/humanservices.hawaii.gov\/bessd\/child-care-program\/child-care-licensing\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hawai\u02bbi Department of Human Services<\/a> and not under the jurisdiction of Hawai\u02bbi DOE.
