Thank you for your interest in WGU. My name is Becky Bainbridge
and I am the Assistant Supervisor Senior Enrollment Trainer at
WGU. I want to assure you that WGU has set the highest standards
for earning a teaching license in 49 of 50 states (Iowa in
negotiation). We do offer a path to licensure in the state of
Louisiana. WGU will work with you through your entire degree and
earning a teaching license in your state. Should you have further
questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me. I can be
reached toll free at 1-866-225-5948 ext. 1643 or bbainbridge@wgu.edu.
