Overview

If candidates desire to teach in a state other than West Virginia, the CAEP approved program completed at West Virginia State University may qualify the candidates for a comparable initial certificate in the state of their choice. To be certain, the candidates should obtain the requirements of other states by contacting the appropriate state certification agency and use this information in planning their program of studies with their advisers.

History

For more than 120 years, the Department of Education has prepared teachers as human developers who love to teach. The Department nurtures future teachers through a formative process which is utilized to assist education candidates in becoming exemplary teachers in the region, state and nation.

Graduates of the program must firmly believe that all public school students can learn. This program requires candidates to demonstrate that (1) they are focused on public school student achievement and success, (2) they are role models for public school students, and (3) they have the potential to be a member of the teaching profession.

Candidates must demonstrate these three dispositions throughout the program that requires the completion of a rigorous academic content specialization, combined with a complementary sequence of related general education courses, and a professional sequence of education courses that contain a minimum of 895 clock hours that are required infield placements and the Yearlong Clinical Residency Program.
