CAST is a certificate program designed for students working with or planning to work with children. It focuses on child protection and safety issues including criteria, identification, reporting, and advocacy for child victims and survivors of child abuse. The CAST certificate should give students essential information for working with children and enhanced skills for job competition. The program includes studies regarding interdisciplinary, ethical, realistic, and culturally-sensitive issues that provide a focus on child protection and safety. The program should provide students with the ability to identify possible child abuse and neglect, and enable them to know how, when, where, and to whom to report the circumstances.
