What is unique about Utah State Universitys Early Childhood Alternative Teacher Preparation Program?
The program at Utah State University is a collaborative effort among Utah State University, local participating school districts, and the Utah State Office of Education. In addition to course work and supervision provided by the University, participating local districts are involved in monthly advisory board meetings and are key to providing on-the-job supervision and support to the alternative preparation student. Coursework is geared specifically to prepare the alternative preparation student to work in public school settings with children who have disabilities, including Autistic Spectrum Disorders.
