Where Is Cortland in the Process?
On July 20, 2000, SUNY Cortland filed the Intent to Seek NCATE Accreditation form. Teacher Education Program Coordinators are currently in the process of revising and reflecting upon their programs. This is an opportunity to update, enhance and enrich existing programs, as well as to develop new teacher education programs. The Unit consists of all teacher education programs on the Cortland campus–across the board. WE ARE ONE. Our Teacher Education Committee (TEC) is the governing body for the Unit. Through that body important discussions of all aspects of teacher education take place. A Conceptual Framework Committee has completed a final draft of the Unit philosophy. And much invaluable collaboration has begun to take place among colleagues across the campus. The NCATE BOE site visit is scheduled for March 20 – 24, 2004.
