Technically, student teaching is your 鈥渃apstone鈥 exercise for completing your degree and will propel you to begin your professional teaching career, graduate school or both; thus, student teaching is completed in your senior year. Some students teach in the fall semester, some in the spring. Speak to your advisor and/or the Coordinator of Adolescent Education Programs about this when the time comes.
You will work with your advisor who will choose the appropriate placements.
You will need to set up your own TEACH account.
Pathway: Approved Teacher Preparation Program 05/01/2014
This pathway refers to programs specifically designed and registered with the New York State Education Department to qualify students for New York State teacher, pupil personnel, or administrative certification. Specified non-coursework requirements, such as the New York State Teacher Certification Examinations and fingerprint clearance, must also be satisfied.
You need to finish your bachelor鈥檚 degree in Visual Arts (K-12).聽 You also need to complete the following NYS workshops: Project SAVE, child abuse training, Dignity for All Students (DASA). Contact the Certification Officer--Amherst Education Programs to address any questions in regard to being recommended.
The bachelor鈥檚 cert code is needed when you apply for your certification through your TEACH account. When you actually do apply, the TEACH system will ask you what you are applying for.
Here is what you will need when you do that:
- Area of Interest:聽Classroom Teacher
- Subject Area:聽Visual Arts
- Grade Level:聽Kindergarten 鈥 Grades 12-All Grades
- Title:聽Visual Arts
- Type of Certificate:聽Initial Certificate
- Institution Code:聽Daemen College
- Award Title:聽Bachelors of Science
- Program Code:聽24062
NYSED website聽
Both workshops can be accomplished there.
Currently, we do not.聽
Keep in mind at Daemen, we are concerned with you finishing your degree and getting your certification based on your major. Any extension(s) would be between NYSED and you.
NYSED recommends the following:
- Go to the Office of Teaching web site: .
- Once there, click on Topics A-Z.聽
- Then, scroll down to Certificate Requirements.聽
- Then select your area of interest, etc. and click the search button.聽 You need to look for the pathway called Additional Classroom Teaching Certificate
- Must Hold a Valid Certificate.聽
Under that, you will see all the requirements for an additional certificate. Then click on each requirement for more information and explanation of coursework.
You apply for the additional certificate through TEACH, but you would not use a program code.
You have to send official transcripts either to your local BOCES (the one closest to where you live) or to NYSED after you apply for your additional certificate(s), depending on who you designate as the evaluator when you apply in TEACH.
