Bluefield University’s Teacher Education Program, which is designed to prepare competent, caring, and qualified teachers who are reflective practitioners, is awarded TEAC accreditation by the Inquiry Brief Commission of the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) for a period of seven years, from 10/24/2016-12/31/2023. The accreditation does not include individual education courses that the EPP offers to P-12 educators for professional development, re-licensure, or other purposes. This accreditation certifies that Bluefield University’s Teacher Education Program has provided evidence that their program adheres to TEAC’s quality principles. The Teacher Education Program at Bluefield University has graduated highly qualified teachers for more than 40 years. These graduates serve in distinctive careers as teachers and administrators in public and private schools throughout Virginia and the United States. Schools and communities have richly benefited from their service and Leadership. The Teacher Education Program reflects the liberal arts nature of the University as demonstrated by a program of general education courses, carefully chosen content knowledge courses, and professional studies courses that the teacher licensure candidates must follow. Courses have been selected and designed to provide opportunities for the achievement, application, and refinement of knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary for entrance into and effective performance in the teaching profession. In conjunction with extensive fieldwork in the local public schools, their courses of study enable the teacher licensure candidates to design learning experiences responsive to the individual academic, cultural, socioeconomic, and physical differences of learners. Teacher licensure candidates are encouraged to apply theories presented in the university classroom to their practical experiences in the schools and to engage in continuous reflection in their approach to teaching.
