Elementary education is the teaching of children in primary school systems. A higher education program focused on this subject can include topics like lesson planning, classroom methods, communication, pedagogic theory, and child development.

A bachelor’s degree, which requires four years of study, gives students the opportunity to improve their knowledge and training in a specific field. With their increased skill proficiency, students may qualify for a career with better pay upon graduation.

Part-time learning allows one to obtain a degree or qualification even if one cannot attend school on a full-time basis. One can learn at one's own pace, gradually accumulating credits that count towards a final qualification.
