Apprenticeship Program
At Cheston Montessori, we are dedicated to and passionate about preservation of the early childhood profession. We are thus looking to sponsor potential candidates to join our Apprentice Programme, an exclusive salaried work-study initiative designed to enable ambitious preschool educators to concurrently attain a qualification in Early Childhood as well as gain valuable on-the-job training without having to worry about financial ability.
Upon graduation, our Apprentices will have a head-start into early childhood with the ability to integrate theoretical knowledge, a holistic understanding of child development practices and hands-on classroom experiences. At the same time, they will acquire soft skills in Personal Effectiveness, Communication and Customer Service to ensure they are all-rounded; well-equipped and ready to teach effectively in any preschool environment.
Give a head start to a fulfilling career, a stable future and a world of endless opportunities.
