Transition to Teaching programs are designed to enable those who already hold a bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited institution to more easily transition to education without requiring an additional degree. Options include early childhood, elementary, secondary, and pre-kindergarten through grade 12 (all grades). Candidates enrolled in an Indiana approved program and hired by an Indiana school corporation are eligible to receive a three year, non-renewable T2T permit.
