How teachers earn college credit

Teachers who want graduate credit can earn it for this training. University of Massachusetts Global, accredited by the WASC Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC), awards up to four graduate-level semester credits per seminar to teachers who opt in.

At the end of the training, registration forms are given out. The form goes to UMass Global along with the credit fee, which each teacher pays directly and which is separate from the training cost.

The practicum is the final step: the teacher applies the training in their own classroom and finishes within six months. Once it is done, the credit is awarded. Meryl Kay Kleiner is the contact for credit questions, at morahmeryl@yahoo.com.
