Those interested in teaching a range of subjects within their self-contained classrooms will benefit most from the Multiple Subject Teaching Credential, which authorizes them to instruct reading, writing, math, and the humanities from grades K—8.
Graduates of the Single Subject credential program are authorized to teach one specific subject, such as English, math, science, home economics, history, or physical education, in most middle schools and high schools, in grades preschool and K–12.
CSUSB's Special Education Credential Program provides a path to a California Educational Specialist Credential and/or a Master's, with specializations in Mild/Moderate Support Needs, Extensive Support Needs, or Early Childhood Special Education.
This credential is for those candidates seeking employment with a Regional Occupational Program (ROP), Public or Charter School, or Correctional Institution. It is also beneficial for persons teaching in a community college, private secondary, or post-secondary environment.
