Teacher Education, Multiple Levels degree programs

An associate's degree in teacher education program across multiple levels is a transfer and pre-education program, not a teaching license on its own. It covers the foundations of child development, classroom instruction, and educational psychology that map to the first two years of a bachelor's degree in teaching. It suits community-college students who want to keep their options open across elementary, middle, and secondary grades while saving money before moving into a four-year teacher-preparation program.
