Pathway to Teaching Careers, AA (PTCH-AA)

|
This program is designed for students who wish to transfer to a Connecticut State University to pursue teacher certification in elementary and/or secondary education. This program also prepares students for teacher preparation programs at many private institutions. The courses will prepare students to fulfill general education requirements, begin foundational work in education theory and practice, and develop greater expertise in their fields of study. Upon successful completion of the program, students will be eligible to transfer their credits to a CSU, where they can apply for acceptance into the teacher certification program. Students are advised to review the requirements of the transfer institution with their academic advisor prior to course selection.
Learning Outcomes:
In addition to meeting the general education outcomes, graduates will:
- Work creatively with others, including culturally and intellectually diverse peoples; think critically; and demonstrate an appreciation for learning.

- Identify the requirements for teaching based on academic program requirements and state certification requirements.
