Goshen College is expanding its Transition to Teaching program with the addition of an online evening track. The college says the decision to expand the program comes amid the current teacher shortage.
Previously, the college says students in the program would attend classes on campus during the daytime.
“We knew that daytime classes were prohibitive for working adults,” said Suzanne Ehst, professor of education. “Seeing a lot of our partner schools scramble to fill their positions was the motivation we needed to finally pivot online.”
The program now allows the opportunity for students to attend classes in the evening via Zoom and work asynchronously in the summer, when the workload is accelerated, but the flexible schedule doesn’t require specific class and login times.
Goshen College says secondary educators can earn a permanent instructional license in less than two years through its program.
