Hello. I am wondering does anyone know what online programs does SC accept for initial teacher certification? I saw a disclosure on the certification page for student teacher for online students. It just does not say anything about what programs are acceptable.

I am trying to get back into teaching. I was in the PACE program and I was not able to complete all of the requirements in 3 years. So, I no longer have certification and the only way to get it back is to complete a teacher education program.

I am looking at online institutions because it will fit my schedule best and seems to be the quickest option. (The only masters program in Columbia are USC and CIU.

Has anyone went the online route or know someone who has?

Thanks!
Tammie So Happy to help you with this one! I as well live in SC, Myrtle Beach; I currently attend [link removed]!

NoCertification Tammie, Thanks for responding! I was actually looking at WGU. I think I just needed some confirmation from someone else in my state that it is accepted in SC. I am going to move ahead with WGU's application process. I like the cost (the lowest I have seen for any program-even in state). I think if I hurry, I may be able to get everything in to star...See More

SC Teacher No More I'd strongly consider getting a different degree. Teaching positions will shrink by about 30% in SC over the next few years as we are one of the states with declining students and more virtual schools are being approved.

Masters degrees in Public Administration, Public Health or Hospital Administration are good ones.
