Students interested in teaching elementary school should complete the requirements for the Preliminary Multiple Subjects Credential. Students must demonstrate subject matter competence to complete a credential either by completing an approved subject matter program, necessary major, or by passing the California Subject Examinations for Teachers (CSET). Check with a School of Education advisor to find out if your major has an approved subject matter program.

The courses within this program also serve as the general education core for both the Mild/Moderate and Extensive Support Needs Preliminary Credentials.

Candidates must complete all credential and state requirements to be eligible for a credential. Credential requirements are subject to change. Current credential requirements can be obtained from the School of Education credential program advisors.
