Compassionate and self-motivated students are needed to provide classroom assistance to students in special education programs. A special education classroom assistant actively participates in everyday tasks assigned by the host teacher and works alongside the teacher and their students. The special education classroom assistant must enjoy working with children and be devoted to building a nurturing and safe learning environment. Students who are interested in education or human service professions are strongly encouraged to enroll.
Students are allowed to take up to 2 credits of experience based course offerings that best fit their needs or interests.
Special education classroom assistant courses will count towards the 2 credit experience based course offering maximum.
