The Education department offers multiple programs to equip future teachers for successful careers. Teachers are among the most impactful people in the lives of students. Whether learning how to read or write or how to calculate complex math equations, students spend many hours and days with teachers who will help shape their lives through the process of education. That’s why the Education department at UVF is committed to prepare you to be a competent, caring, and inspiring teacher.
State Reciprocity
The University of Valley Forge’s teacher preparation programs are designed to prepare students for Pennsylvania teacher certification. Students who wish to obtain teacher certification in a different state should determine the criteria needed with that state’s department of education. For state-by-state information, please see careeronestop.org.
Our programs, ranging from certificates to master’s degrees, cater to the diverse needs of aspiring teachers, professors and those seeking to deepen their understanding of education.
“I have grown professionally, academically, and spiritually through my course work, field experience, and investment from the professors. This degree has not only prepared me to teach young children in different subject areas, but it has taught me to love them, care for them, and serve them through challenging home lives, academic struggles, and difficult situations. In the future, my hope is to serve children as a missionary in a cross-cultural context, and this degree has helped to make this possible!“
