PROGRAM:
This is an accelerated approach to course work required for teacher certification in Nebraska.  This delivery system will provide concentrated course work on Saturdays and will continue through the summer.  It will be possible for a candidate to complete course work for certification in one year.  Student teaching will require an additional semester.  

The plan will involve three semesters of course work and 16 to 20 weeks of student teaching, depending upon the certification sought by the student.  Any content course work that was not completed previously will be added to the student's program.
