The Department of Teacher Education prepares educators who<\/span>\u00a0inspire students, value the uniqueness of all learners and are dedicated to transforming lives for a better tomorrow. Our degrees meet the requirements for teacher licensure in Arkansas.<\/span><\/p> We offer flexible pathways and multiple licensure options so you can put what you learn into practice right away through hands-on classroom experiences. Every candidate completes a year-long residency, with several paid pathways available.<\/p> All licensure programs at SAU are currently pursuing national accreditation by the Association for Advancing Quality in Educator Preparation (AAQEP). A decision is scheduled in November 2025.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t Leads to K-6 licensure Leads to 4-8 licensure in: Leads to 7-12 licensure in: Leads to licensure in:Teacher Education Programs<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
