A Message from the Department
Socio-economic advantages, language, disabilities, and race too often predict academic outcomes in the Central Valley. It is increasingly urgent for schools to improve educational achievements and break the persistence of inequity. The Department of Teacher Education deepens this commitment by recruiting, preparing, and supporting educators who are strongly equipped to ensure that all students succeed, regardless of circumstance.

CPR Certification Requirement
The California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CCTC) requires that all students applying for an initial Credential demonstrate that they have infant, child, and adult CPR certification which meets the criteria of the American Heart Association or the American Red Cross.
Students who already have CPR certification need to provide a copy of the document, via email, fax or in person, to Credential Services in DBH 303.
