Presentation
The Division of Education, through its Teacher Education Program (TEP), is committed to training quality teachers who will have a Christian philosophy of education. The Division seeks to prepare students with requisite skills, methods, and strategies which have proven effective and to equip them thoroughly with the necessary knowledge base for their respective subject area specialties.
The Teacher Education Program (TEP) is approved by the State of Florida Department of Education. This recognition enables graduates of Clearwater Christian College to move freely to other states and be able to be state certified to teach outside Florida. State approval of teacher education programs recognizes a serious commitment on the part of institutions to quality programs for the preparation of educational personnel and to state goals to improve student performance by improving the knowledge and performance of their teachers. If additional information regarding approved programs is needed, it can be obtained from the Office of Professional Training Services, Florida Department of Education, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0400. Title II Report results for CCC may be viewed on this page as links under the section above entitled Institutional Reports.
Participation in the Teacher Education Program is required of all students anticipating a major or minor from the Division of Education. In the event provisions of the TEP are modified by the College due to changes in the program made by the State of Florida Teacher Certification Office, students will be required to meet the revised requirements. Students transferring in may require additional semesters to complete all program requirements.
