Private school 6yrs+

1.1 The mission of the Education Department at Santa Clara University is to educate compassionate, competent professionals who are committed to meaningful and supportive engagement with people, schools, and communities. Our programs are focused on academic excellence and comprehensive preparation of future teachers and school leaders who will attend thoughtfully to the academic and personal needs of all students and their communities. The Preliminary Multiple Subject and Single Subject Teaching Credential programs comprise our largest group of credential candidates. Our credential candidates’ field placements vary: most are placed in public schools; some are placed in charter schools; and others are full-time teachers of record in Catholic schools.

The Department of Education offers a program for multiple and single subject candidates who are teaching in private and/or Catholic school settings for 6 or more years of full time teaching. Private school or Catholic school educators may complete an abbreviated program for multiple or single single subject. In lieu of student teaching or practicum, candidates must have complete over six years of full-time teaching in the subject area(s) authorized by the Preliminary credential the candidate is seeking.

The abbreviated route to the Preliminary Multiple or Single Subject Credential is appropriate only for individuals with six or more years of full time teaching experience in a regionally accredited Catholic or Private school. Interested candidates are advised by faculty of the course requirements offered by the Department of Education and must then review the requirements listed on the CTC leaflet CL-834 with an understanding that the Commission on Teacher Credentialing sets the requirements for the issuance of a credential to these candidates.
