Teacher Credentialing Program- General Information

The Public-School Teaching Credentials in the State of California are regulated by legislative actions which are subsequently interpreted by appropriate regulatory agencies.

With the guidance provided by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CCTC), US University has developed the 2042 Credential Program for candidates seeking to serve in a variety of positions in public schools in the state of California.

The Board of Trustees, the Administration and the College of Education are committed to the concept that continuous screening and evaluation are necessary to ensure the candidates who are recommended for a credential are well prepared to be effective members of the teaching profession.

Instructors and supervisors assess candidates on basic skills, personal qualifications, and on course and teaching performance according to the Teacher Performance Expectations (TPEs) mandated by the state of California.
