Program Overview

Concordia College's (Concordia) Teacher Education Programs, fully accredited by NCATE, include a foundation in liberal arts and a core of education courses, which are enhanced by a strong emphasis on pre-professional field experiences. For candidates in the Early Childhood (birth-grade 2), Childhood (Grades 1-6) and Middle Childhood Generalist (Grades 5-9) programs, a Liberal Studies concentration is available with a specialization in Art, Social Sciences, Biology, English, Religion, Mathematics, or Social Studies. Graduates of Concordia's Teacher Education program qualify academically for an initial New York State Classroom Teaching Certificate and thus are ready to teach in schools.
