Admission to the Professional Development Sequence
All students seeking teacher certification must complete a sequence of professional development courses. Admission to the Professional Development Sequence is restricted. Space availability may be a factor in the admission decision, as well as academic performance, completion of prerequisite courses, documented evidence of proficiency in reading and in oral and written communication, and the number of hours the student needs, at the time of application, to complete the program.
For students seeking early childhood through grade six, all-level generic special education, or all-level physical education certification, admission to the Professional Development Sequence is competitive and there is a specific University grade point average, as well as mandated grades in prerequisite courses required. Additionally, students seeking early childhood through grade six and all-level generic special education certification may only lack one class outside the sequence when they enter the Professional Development Sequence. To progress within the sequence, and to complete the sequence, the student must maintain a specific University grade point average and must earn the appropriate grade in each course in the sequence. Students are encouraged to speak to an adviser in the Office of the Dean, George I. Sánchez Building 216 or the Kinesiology Advising Center, Bellmont Hall 1005 for additional information about these requirements.
For students in other teacher certification programs, requirements for admission to and continuation in the Professional Development Sequence are set by the college in which the student majors.
