McKendree's Center at Scott AFB offers a Teacher Certification Program that leads to certification to teach at the secondary level. Students must have already completed a Bachelor's degree in any area. Classes meet in the evenings adjacent to Base at the Scott Elementary School. The program includes course work in Education, 3 semesters of classroom experience and a semester of student teaching. In addition, students must also pass Illinois' required tests which consist of the Basic Skills Test, a Content Area Test, and the Assessment of Professional Teaching Test. If a student has any deficiencies from their undergraduate program, these must be completed before student teaching. The requirements (29 credit hours) can be completed in 4 semesters if the student has no deficiencies. Tuition for courses in the Teacher Certification program is $350/credit hour. If you are currently employed in an educational capacity with a school district, inquire about the Educator's Scholarship. To find out more about this program and to determine if you qualify to participate, please contact Pam Chambers, Assistant Director, McKendree's Center at Scott AFB at 618-256-2006 or pchamber@mckendree.edu.
