Teaching Toolbox I and II: These blended (in-person classes and online instruction) courses include a set of mandatory workshops related to teaching and learning to be completed in the first and second semesters as well as a series of optional workshops that students can choose from and enroll in throughout the program.

The Practicum is an opportunity to observe and participate in the teaching and/or planning of a course in the college classroom under the guidance of the mentor teacher. Students are observed and receive feedback from their mentor teacher and College Teachers Training for Internationally Educated Professionals faculty.
