Time for a Career Transition to Teaching?
During your college years, you may not have thought about a career in a school classroom. But now, after some years in the workforce, you may like the idea of guiding children to a meaningful future and inspiring them to dream big, or teaching high school students and preparing them for college and careers.
The nationally recognized Ball State Teachers College can prepare you for the classroom with our online transition to teaching programs. You can finish in four consecutive semesters and be ready to earn your teaching license.
You will perform your student teaching at a school in Indiana. A Teachers College faculty member will supervise your teaching. Online classes are taught by the same professors who teach on our main campus. Except for student teaching and field experiences, you will pursue the program 100 percent online.
Visit our individual program pages to learn more about transitioning to teaching for elementary or secondary education.
