Course Description:

'' The ATCP Online program, offered through the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP), provides a unique opportunity to become a fully certified teacher in 12 to 18 months taking your instructional courses fully online via the Internet. The program is designed to certify individuals who hold bachelor’s degrees in disciplines other than education.

ATCP Online focuses on 23 certification areas:

If selected, you can work as a paid teacher of record in the classroom and begin three to four highly focused semesters of college work at the same time, with individual mentoring, supervision, and certification test preparation. Participants working in the classroom as a teacher of record generally receive the same salary and benefits as an entry-level teacher.

When you complete the required course work you will also have nine or more hours that may apply towards a future master’s degree. The program also requires that you pass the Texas Content Exam before the initial Texas Examinations of Educator Standards (TExES) certification in your particular field. Upon satisfactory completion of the program and both of the required state exams, the University of Texas at El Paso and the school district will recommend you to the State Board of Educator’s Certification for a Texas Teaching Certificate that has reciprocal recognition both in Texas and in 41 states.
