-I like Concordia’s teacher education program because of its flexibility in its placement program. The standard of education and modern education strategies allow its students to go almost anywhere in the country.

Amanda Smith-

I was attracted to the small size and intimate setting at Concordia. I wanted a place where education is viewed as an art form and a program with lots of interaction between professors and students. Now that I am here, I’ve found all I was looking for. It is so simple, but it is nice to walk into a classroom and see that every person is excited to be there and smiling.

Concordia’s Education program not only gives you the skills and knowledge you need to be a teacher, but also gives you the hands on experience in the classroom.

Casey Clark-

I had been out of college and working for more than 7 years when I decided to go back to school. Concordia made the admission process easy and provided personal support every step of the way. The credential program was also highly recommended by my friend who currently teaches in the Newport Mesa School District and felt the program prepared him for life as a teacher.

Larissa Martus-

Nothing we do in our classes is frivolous or busy work. It all has a purpose and you see how you will use it in your future classroom.

Sara Ristow-

I chose Concordia University because they offer smaller classes with professors who have worked as teachers in both elementary and secondary classes. The experience and knowledge they have to share has been valuable in my education. I also appreciate the times that the classes are offered. I have been able to keep my full time job during the day and take all of my classes at night.

In this credential program, it is amazing to watch what you are learning to do.
