Description
The Teacher Education Program at Concordia College maintains approval through the Minnesota Professional Educator Licensing and Standards Board (PELSB). Each major or add-on endorsement in education prepares students to meet the PELSB requirements for a Tier 3 license in a particular area of licensure. Each program of study includes coursework, field experiences, completion of the CPAST (one option for the state-required performance assessment), and selected other requirements. In addition, students must also demonstrate dispositions established by the department. Upon completion of requirements for licensure, a student may begin the application process for a Tier 3 license, and as part of that application, the Department of Education will complete a section verifying completion of an approved teacher preparation program.
