I can honestly say this program has been a blessing in disguise. I have learned the importance of working as a community. I have always felt that I needed to do things on my own; when in reality I don’t know everything and that I should take the time to learn from other professionals.
I have also learned from this program the idea of staying on task. If it wasn’t for this program I don’t think I would truly know what it is like to be time oriented and organized and how important it is to stay with a routine.
Lastly I learned that I am not the only one fighting for the cause of children. There are advocates and professionals all over the world who believe that Early Childhood is the key to a better tomorrow. I am grateful to have chosen this profession with so many other great professionals.
A long term goal I have is to be a great advocate for the Early Childhood Field. I want to leave a lasting impression on the field that will eventually lead other individuals down the same path. I want the world to see that the greatest developments happen in a child’s early years.
As a farewell message I just want everyone from my colleagues to my instructors to know how much I have enjoyed learning and growing over the last year and a half. I have become a better person professionally and personally. I have learned about the advantages of leading an anti-bias classroom and how it will not only benefit myself, but the families that are involved.
If over the next 20 years anyone of my peers has a need that they think I may be of an assistance to, please feel free to email me at donsheapittman@yahoo.com and I will do everything in my power to provide you with help.

I like what you said about being organized and managing your time. So many of my colleagues have a hard time thinking about completing an online program because they don't feel like they could manage it. I think it is very important that an online student be organized. I have enjoyed your blog and good luck to you!
