Summary

This 30-credit hour master’s degree program is designed for provisionally licensed CTE teachers. Half of the courses in this program will meet both, the Virginia Department of Education pedagogy course requirements for the provisional licensed teacher to earn a regular teaching license and the MS degree requirements. The remaining half will count for the MS degree requirements only.

This program is offered virtually by blending on-line courses and interactive videoconferencing courses (IVC). Therefore, students are not required to take any courses on the Virginia Tech Blacksburg campus.



Delivery - Primarily online. One IVC course required.
