The Education Paraprofessional Certificate of Completion is intended to prepare individuals who have graduated from high school and who have been hired as paraprofessional in the public schools to improve their practice as a paraprofessional and to move toward teacher licensure if they so choose. Students are admitted to the program as a cohort and move through the program on a cohort basis. The schedule requires approximately 6-9 credits per semester to accommodate the paraprofessionals’ work schedules. The program is offered entirely on-line.
