The Michigan School-Age Credential (MI SAC) is a credential awarded by the Michigan 4C Association—Child Advocacy Program. The MI SAC recognizes qualified caregivers who work with school-age children and can demonstrate their ability to nurture the social, emotional, physical, and intellectual growth of children ages 5 to 12 years.
It is designed for individuals who currently work in licensed school-age settings. MI SAC is different from the associate degree in Early Childhood Education, the Early Childhood Education Certificate, and the Child Development Associate (CDA). Kellogg Community College provides classes that may be used toward the completion of the MI SAC training requirements. It does not award the MI SAC credential.
Individuals who are interested in applying for the MI SAC must meet the requirements set forth by the Michigan 4C Association—Child Advocacy Program. All interested students need to meet with the Early Childhood Education Program Manager. For more information call 269-965-3931, ext. 2399.
