Nova Scotia College of Early Childhood Education (NSCECE) is an institution for early childhood educators. Our curriculum and methodology have been perfected over 40 years and is being continually improved. Our small class sizes offer individualized care and attention. We also have a resource centre that provide a wealth of materials to supplement our students' learning experience. As the capital of the province of Nova Scotia, the city of Halifax enjoys many of the benefits of a big city while retaining the charm and character of its rich history. Halifax is a hotspot of culture, education, and business with a thriving social scene. We are located minutes away from the downtown area, which is chock full of restaurants, cafes, pubs, and shops for every taste.
