Stan Conley: I cant say for sure in CA, but in NY you do havae to have Special Ed certification to teach Spec Ed at any level. That is except inclusion classes where you are the subject teacher. That is what I did, Most Spec ed teachers do not havae training in a subject and the inclusion helps them get the subject areas better for their classes. Most states ae hurting for special ed teachrs, and I can not imagine they would require subject certification also.
Corey Rohleder: a astounding and helpful e book is "you're Gonna Love This toddler" by utilising Paula Kluth. it extremely is subject is coaching (as a beginner) in an inclusive college room..in general autistic infants, yet it could stick to to many specific desires. Paula Kluth is definitely accepted interior the sped container for her coaching skills. She speaks everywhere in the country and supplies great perception. i could say, it extremely is aggravating which you have only taken a "couple suitable trai! ning." aggravating interior the experience your college gadget presented you this place while by utilising federal regulation in thought attempt to be qualified educationally..ideally overqualified. in my opinion, if my toddler have been being taught by utilising a below qualified educator, i could sue. i'm no longer saying this to berate you, yet to tell you that we mothers and dads of specific desires infants are fierce protectors and advocates. could you choose for to settle for this place, in my opinion i've got self belief, you may touch any specific guidance instructor on your district and %. their brains....Show more
Alise Rutgers: Hi there. I am a special education teacher in northern CA (Sonoma County.) I have the "old credential" which is called Severely Handicapped (SH). In order to get an SH credential, I did need a Multiple Subject Credential. But the credential requirements have changed in recent years, and there are several ways to get a Special Ed ! credential now. (Now they are called Mild/Moderate, Moderate/! Severe, etc. etc.) Check out this address for the California Teacher Credentials info for special ed:www.ctc.ca.govOn the home page, click on "Click here to find out how to become a teacher." On the next page, click on "I want to teach special education students."I have had a number of interns and student teachers in the last several years, and only one of them had an Multiple Subject credential. A Multiple Subject credential does authorize you to "teach all subjects in a self-contained class, and as a self-contained classroom teacher, to team teach or regroup students across classrooms, in grades twelve and below..." Since most Special Day Classes are self-contained, that's perhaps where the CSU reasoning is coming from. However, to get a permanent job in special ed, you would need a specialist credential. And that no longer necessarily requires a Multiple Subject.In the SF North Bay area, I know of 2 universities that have good reputations for Special Ed credentia! ling programs, and I am sure there are more. I have had some personal experience with special ed credentials students from Sonoma State University in Rohnert Park (Sonoma County) and Dominican University (Marin County.) The SF area is beautiful - expensive housing, but lots to see and do. And I love the climate. I got my first special ed credentials in Pennsylvania and in West Virginia, but I got burned out on the harsh winters. I've been here for nearly 30 years, and it's home to me now. And I LOVE my job!Anyway, check out the CTC website and go from there. Good luck!...Show more
