This program is designed to provide teacher licensure in LD or BED to individuals who have an undergraduate degree in a field other than education. Options exists for those currently teaching as well as for persons who are not employed full time as teachers. In PAIL, students complete foundation courses in assessment in special education, instructional practices for LD or BED, and learning theory and models of teaching.

Specialty area courses in LD or BED, supported by existing online course work, include an introduction to the field, methods for teaching in the field, programming for the field, and clinical field experience. Throughout their course work, students have numerous opportunities to use cases and problem-based learning that includes appropriate implementation of inclusive practices.

Visit PAIL program website for more information.
