You'll learn about the program's curriculum, including the courses, fieldwork, and student teaching requirements. We'll also provide an overview of the program duration and scheduling options. I’ll explain the importance of field experience and student teaching, as these are essential for teacher preparation. You'll learn about securing a student teaching placement and the support provided during this phase.
We'll guide you through the application process, including deadlines, required documents, and how to submit your application.
We'll discuss the prerequisites and eligibility criteria for the program, including subject matter competency and the basic skills requirement.

We'll open the floor for questions, allowing you to seek clarification on any aspects of the program, admissions process, or related topics.
