She’d studied law in Mexico, but chose to put her career on hold while she focused on raising her two kids. Once they got older, she began teaching English to young learners and found she really enjoyed it. So when she arrived in Canada, she looked for a quality early childhood education program—and found it at Herzing College. Andrea finished the program in October 2022, immediately landed a job at a private daycare, and has already been made a team leader in charge of hiring other ECEs!

This program offers an alternative to people who want to participate in eco-friendly building design, but don't want to invest years in university to become a licensed architect. Our program trains students in the principles of sustainable architecture and the software and technical skills required to draft architectural designs. Moncef Noual has been teaching the program since 2017—and was recently recognized as Herzing College Montreal’s instructor of the year! The honour reflects the fact that he really gets to know his students during their tenure with Herzing and goes out of his way to make sure they have the best possible experience from beginning to end. We chatted with Moncef recently to learn more about his career journey and the sustainable architecture field in general. Here are the highlights of that conversation.

You're not so different from Robbie Hart. Robbie was a carpenter for 15 years before heading back to school to study sustainable architecture at Herzing College. When he first started, he knew very little about eco-friendly design and had no drafting experience. Robbie understood the building process, but he'd never created technical drawings or used CAD software. Now, just six months after graduation, he has built a successful freelance career as an architectural technician. Robbie is currently working for several companies, including McGee & Associates Inc. in Beaconsfield, Quebec.  We interviewed Robbie to find out what he thought of Herzing's sustainable architecture program. We also wanted to know how he landed his first clients and how his career is progressing. Read on for the highlights.

And how quickly smiles can turn to tears when nap time is delayed, a favourite toy goes astray, or the little one starts missing mum. To say babies and small children are unpredictable would be a major understatement. But if working as an early childhood educator (ECE) is your true calling, you're up for the challenge.

Exactly how big an impact will you have on young children's lives? Probably far greater than you can imagine, especially if you're just starting out and don't know much about the field. The truth is, preschool and daycare teachers play a huge part in how kids develop—socially, academically, even physically and emotionally. They literally change lives and shape futures. As parents, and as a society, we place a huge trust in early childhood educators (ECEs) to help grow the next generation of learners and citizens. Exactly what goes into this process? How do ECEs prepare babies and toddlers for the next stage of their life journey?
