School of Education

The School of Education offers professional programs designed to train and equip the next generation of teachers for both public schools and private Christian schools.

Students who are interested in secondary education will major in English, Mathematics, Science, history or Music K-12.

CCU’s School of Education has earned a reputation in the local community for producing strong educator-leaders who are dedicated to addressing diverse learner needs. This training occurs through a combination of classroom and experiential learning—all CCU education students are required to complete 800 hours of field experience. CCU has professional development partnerships with local middle schools and high schools where students work with exemplary teachers to gain expert experience.

Throughout the program, students are taught and mentored by exceptional professors who have all been licensed as teachers or administrators in Colorado. They know what it’s like to be in the classrooms and they are committed to helping students succeed.
