California Internship Teacher Preparation Programs

Internship programs allow individuals to complete their teacher preparation coursework concurrent with their first year or two in a paid teaching position. These programs are led by colleges, universities and by school districts and county offices of education. To qualify for an internship program, an individual must possess a bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited college or university, satisfy the basic skills requirement, meet the subject matter competence and US Constitution requirement, and obtain character and identification clearance. The program provides teacher preparation coursework and an organized system of support from college and district faculty. Completion of an internship program results in the same credential as is earned through a traditional teacher preparation program.

An intern credential is issued by a commission approved teacher preparation intern program when a school district, county office of Education (LEA) employs an intern and agreeing to provide support and participate in the program. The credential is a collaboration between the teacher preparation program and the LEA, with both parties having responsibilities for support of the intern while they are employed and on the credential. A LEA can hire an intern only when a suitable fully prepared teacher is not available.

For additional information on internship programs contact Intern@ctc.ca.gov.
