Jefferson Community & Technical College and Å©·òµ¼º½ Partnership
Earn an Elementary Education and Learning & Behavior Disorders Dual Teaching Certification
The JCTC/Bellarmine 2 x 2 partnership is a great opportunity for JCTC students with an Associate in Applied Science (AAS) in Education to complete a Å©·òµ¼º½ Bachelor’s Degree and Teaching Certification in both Elementary Education and Learning and Behavior Disorders in just two years!
Two years at JCTC plus two years at Bellarmine equals a highly sought-after Bellarmine degree with dual certification.
The degree certifies students in both Elementary Education as well as Special Education (Learning and Behavior Disorders). This is big advantage over other 2 x 2 plans, which usually only certify students in one or the other.
The JCTC/Bellarmine 2 x 2 plan offers:
- High quality training with faculty and diverse mentor teachers
- Certification to work with students with diverse needs in General Education and/or Special Education
- Enhanced marketability because graduates have two certifications
- A prestigious Å©·òµ¼º½ degree
Worried about affordability? Bellarmine offers generous financial aid, which often brings tuition costs in line with public universities. The best way to see your potential cost is to simply Å©·òµ¼º½ to Bellarmine. Bellarmine will contact you with a comprehensive financial aid award. Ask about the TEACH grant!
