Teacher Certification Program Brochure - Providence College

EVERY WEEK I HAVE THE GREAT FORTUNE OF
MEETING WITH PASSIONATE PEOPLE IN ALL
WALKS OF LIFE — AND IN ALL STAGES OF
LIFE — ABOUT BECOMING A HIGH SCHOOL
TEACHER.
Some are experienced business professionals who want more out of their careers.
Some are teachers who are certified in other states but are interested in teaching in
Rhode Island. Some are undergraduate students just getting started. Regardless of
their background, they all share one dream — to have a meaningful career where
they can make a difference in the lives of young people.
If you share this dream, too, please consider the Providence College Teacher Certification
Program. We not only offer one of the most student-centered and reputable
secondary school teacher training programs in New England, but also one of the
most affordable.
It’s also very easy to get started. You won’t have to deal with a lot of red tape. I will
personally meet with you to answer your questions and provide my honest opinion
of whether or not teaching high school is a good fit for you — and if our program
is the best choice.
“The School of Continuing Education staff take the time to look at what your circumstances are and
are able to advise you about the best steps to move forward. I didn’t feel like I was just another
student. I valued the fact that they helped me tailor the program to my individual circumstances.”
