The TeachUp程序 currently offers degrees in the following academic pathways:
- Early Childhood 教育
- 小学教育
- Elementary Special 教育
- 中等教育
- 中等教育/Math
- 中等教育/Science
资格, you must be a New Mexico resident and have graduated from high school or received your GED.
You must NOT have received a Bachelor’s Degree in any subject already. However, if you already have a bachelor's degree, look into the Alternative Licensure Program at 太阳集团娱乐场登陆网站 to obtain your teaching licensure.
You must take at least 6 hours a semester to qualify for the program.
We do recommend following our academic pathways. These are 15/16 credit hours a semester.
This will depend on how much prior college education you have. The program is designed to take four semesters for those students who have never attended college. (15/16 credit hours a semester).
If you already have some credits, an advisor will work with you to see if any of your credits transfer into our program, thus shortening the time it will take you to complete your Bachelor's Degree.
We are in the process of adding as many online classes as possible. However, some classes do require you to attend in person. This is to give you all the support and mentoring we can to help you succeed.
We are also in the process of offering more time slots for classes to offer you a time that fits your schedule, especially if you are already working in a local school.
If you have attained this, you qualify for the Alternative Licensure Program (ALP). ALP at 太阳集团娱乐场登陆网站 is a post-baccalaureate professional development program that offers three licensure tracks: Elementary (19 credits), 中学(16学分), and Special 教育 (21 credits). This program is designed for individuals who are highly motivated to become teachers. Applications are ongoing throughout the year, although courses may only be offered in the Fall and Spring semesters. All ALP courses require advisor/instructor approval, and you must be accepted to the program to take these courses.
If you already have an Associate degree, an advisor will work with you to see if any of your credits transfer into our program, thus shortening the time it will take you to complete your Bachelor's Degree.
