Frequently Asked Questions
You may apply at any time; iteach enrolls students on a continual basis.
No. No matter what bachelor’s degree you have, it’s your subject matter expertise, combined with your successful completion of our program, that makes you eligible to teach. We’ll teach you what you need to know and do in order to be a successful teacher yourself.
Once they have completed their first instructional course, most candidates pursuing a teaching license in Exceptional Needs are immediately eligible to be hired with full teacher pay and apply for their Alternative Special Education License. Those pursuing other certification areas are invited to apply for their Transition to Teaching Permit once they finish the first course, receive passing Praxis exam scores, and are hired by a school district. All completers of our program are eligible for their Practitioner’s License or their Initial Practitioner’s License (depending on years of experience) upon program completion. While Emergency Permitted teachers can apply to and be enrolled in our program, an EP can be converted to a T2T permit or AltSped license when they are ready to begin their residency. All license and permit applications and submitted directly to the Indiana Department of Education through LVIS.
You choose what subject you want to teach! Candidates must pass the Praxis II for their identified content area. Please refer to the ETS Praxis test overview for Indiana here to identify the Praxis II content test that you will be required to take and pass for state licensure. Please note that Transition to Teaching permits are given for either Elementary (K-6) or Secondary (5-12) content areas. Those wanting to teach middle school will pursue secondary certification; middle school content exams will not be accepted.
You may be eligible for a reimbursement of program costs through your district, the CHE’s Transition to Teaching scholarship, or the CIESC’s I-STEM Scholarship. Because iteach is not an institute of higher education, federal financial aid can usually not be applied to iteach program fees.
You can complete all program-required instructional coursework within as little as three months. The entire iteach program, including your teaching residency, is designed to be completed within one school year. However, you have two full school years to find a teaching position as long as you are enrolled in the iteach program. Once hired, you must complete all program requirements during your two-semester field experience.
