Presentation
Paraprofessional Educator (EDU)
D365 - Degree PrintEasy
The intent of the Paraprofessional Educator AAS degree is to prepare both current and future paraprofessional/ teacher aide educators. The AAS degree is designed for immediate employment, but includes a number of transfer courses that could transfer to a baccalaureate degree-granting institution.
This curriculum will prepare graduates for jobs as paraprofessionals or teachers' aides, special education aides for the K-12 school systems, preschool aides for school districts with pre-K classes, and early childhood aides for day/child care centers. Also, the way in which the curricula is designed for a progression or career ladder will enable students to continue their education toward a baccalaureate teaching certificate.
