Through Â鶹ÊÓƵ's School of Education, you can become an educator of character and competence who will reflect Christ as you serve and lead in your school and community. You'll be prepared to transform children's lives as a teacher and leader. Teachers must be scholars, practitioners and relaters, and at Â鶹ÊÓƵ you'll learn how to synergize these three roles so you can transform lives through education.
With Christ as our center, we develop educational leaders whose mission is to transform lives.
We will be the school of choice for transformational teaching, missional service, dynamic leadership, and impactful scholarship.
The National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) first approved Â鶹ÊÓƵ's Professional Education Unit at both the initial and advanced levels in 2000. This national accreditation supported the unit's state approval that had stood since the mid-1950's. The Educator Preparation Program remained accredited by NCATE through October 2020, when it achieved reaccreditation at the initial and advanced levels through the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP). This accrediting body was created via the merger of NCATE and the Teacher Education Accreditation Council (TEAC) in 2013. Â鶹ÊÓƵ University's CAEP accreditation term runs from October 2020 through 2027.
