A streamlined and affordable way to become a teacher<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”0px|||||” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

Western Oregon University (WOU) and Chemeketa Community College have worked together to develop a smooth pathway to earning a B.S. in Education and becoming a teacher. All of our secondary and K-12 teacher education pathways allow you to earn your degree and become a licensed teacher in as little as four years. Join the Degree Partnership Program (DPP) to enjoy the flexibility of being able to take courses through both Chemeketa and WOU as early as your Freshman year.<\/p>\n

Degree Timeline<\/h2>\n

Because each type of teacher preparation has different course requirements, we recommend scheduling an advising appointment with a WOU advisor your first term at Chemeketa to determine the most essential courses to complete your Freshman year, and determine the ideal time for transferring and\/or joining the Degree Partnership Program.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
