Session 2: Flexible Learner Path in Elementary Education: (10:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.)

The NCCU School of Education offers a Flexible Learner Pathway that prepares teacher assistants and previously unlicensed teachers to gain an additional degree as well as licensure in Elementary Education. While the path follows the same curriculum plan as the traditional second degree and licensure programs in Elementary Education, it takes into account the demands of staff who already work in schools in order to create a more feasible path to program completion.
