Checklist
Assesses your readiness to student teach.
- When we receive your approval page, we will generate a checklist which will assess your readiness to student teach. This will allow plenty of time to clear up any loose ends that could delay or prevent you from student teaching.
- We will email you as soon as we have completed your checklist.
- Immediately upon receiving the email, stop by 247 Reid to go over the checklist.
Credential File
Career Services maintains credential files for students and alumni. These files are useful for employment within the field of education. Student teachers request letters of reference from faculty, cooperating teachers, university supervisors, and/or administrators to be sent to Career Services and housed in a file in the Career Services office and sent to respective employers at your request.
- Set up your credential file now! Don’t wait until you are finished student teaching
- Why? You have discovered an opportunity to apply for a job, maybe even your dream job! The superintendent asks to have a credential file sent to him/her. Unfortunately, you failed to set up your credential file and now you are scrambling to gather together the references, etc., that go into a credential file. You may no longer know how to contact people that would have given you a reference. Wouldn’t it have been simpler if you had set up your credential file before you did your student teaching? Before you were offered that dream job?
DO NOT SEND REFERENCES TO THE FIELD PLACEMENT AND CERTIFICATION OFFICE!
- Information on how to set up the credential file and how to have references added to the file is available on Career Services website
