The Program
This course of study enables current and
prospective holders of a California teaching
credential to obtain a Crosscultural Language
and Academic Development (CLAD) certificate
that is issued not by Humboldt State
University but by the California Commission
on Teacher Credentialing.
A CLAD certificate authorizes teachers to
provide two types of instruction to limited-
English-proficient students:
• English as a second language (ESL) instruction
to develop listening, speaking,
reading, and writing skills; and
• specially designed academic instruction
delivered in English. SDAIE, also known as
“sheltered English,” allows K-12 students
access to core subjects, such as math
and social studies, as they continue to
improve their English ability.
This program is offered at Humboldt so
that students in elementary, secondary,
and special education programs may obtain
a CLAD certificate when they obtain their
teaching credentials. It is also open to local
teachers.
The larger goal—one Humboldt shares with
the CCTC—is to ensure that California teachers
are trained to teach in schools with linguistically
and culturally diverse students.
The number of K-12 students with limited
English proficiency continues to grow, increasing
the demand for trained teachers.
This program improves both the competence
and employability of current and
prospective teachers.
