Training Opportunities
GCDC opens it professional development opportunities up to the members of the local early childhood community. Because of security requirements, participants must sign up in advance. We are located on the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) campus in Greenbelt, Maryland. Because this is a very secure facility, participants must be American citizens and present a valid driver's license or hold a valid green card to access Goddard Space Flight Center.
Courses are approved by Maryland Sate Department of Education's (MSDE) Office of Child Care's Credentialing Branch. As such, courses are awarded Core Knowledge hours.
