UW-Whitewater
Katie Ghent, of Marion, who is studying early childhood education at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, has been admitted to the Professional Education program.
Ghent, a student in UW-Whitewater’s College of Education and Professional Studies, has now begun taking upper-level courses for licensure required for the ECE4U-Online Early Childhood program on the way to student teaching, the final activity before teacher candidates earn their degree and teaching license.
Qualifications, which include credits completed, grade-point average and a completion of certain foundational coursework, differ based on major and licensure level.
About 350 students per academic year are admitted to the Professional Education program. This fall, a total of 175 students were admitted for in-person and online enrollment.
