Each 30-hour course consists of mixture of lecture, discussion and practice. The goal is for each trainee to leave the session with practical strategies to implement in their classroom, as a tutor or in their non-profits literacy initiative. Long-term mentoring is encouraged. Certification is possible with the completion of an oral and written assessment along with a practicum experience.
The course is FULLY grant-funded. 15 applicants will be accepted each session on a rolling basis after a successful interview.
If you're a Michigan teacher and would like to earn 30 SCECHs, the cost is $25 to cover administrative costs.
