Company Overview

The Institute is a registered private college whose mission is to deliver top quality educational programs to those persons wishing to work in the human services field in a variety of professional settings. IHSE was originally founded in 1976 and was known as Child Development Services, a joint project of the Nova Scotia Departments of Education and Community Services. In 1992 it was incorporated as a private college under the name of the Institute for Early Childhood Education and Developmental Services. In June 2002, the Board of Governors decided to rename our college the Institute for Human Services Education. It was felt that this name was more inclusive of the Institute's diverse programs and types of services offered. The first program offered by the Institute was the Early Childhood Education diploma. As the the Institute became recognized both nationally and internationally it continued to grow and develop its programs to include Special Education, Public School Program Assistant and Youth Worker. Graduates of the Early Childhood Education Diploma and the Special Education Diploma may continue their academic careers at several Canadian degree granting institutions. Students will be given various levels of advanced standing at the University of Calgary, the Univeristy of Victoria, Mount St. Vincent University, Ryerson Polytechnical Institute and Northern College in Scotland. The Institute is recognized by the Ontario Association for Early Childhood Education as meeting the requirements specified in the Ontario standard for professional training in the field.
