Teachers College
Transition to Teaching Program

The Transition to Teaching (TTT) Program at Ball State University is designed for highly motivated and qualified individuals who seek an Indiana teaching license after having completed an academic degree and experience in another field.
 
Both the elementary and secondary programs are designed to give intensive field experiences to the teacher candidates while they are completing distance and on-campus courses and seminars.
 
Ball State is committed to providing a quality program that prepares candidates to meet all the requirements of licensure and the Indiana standards for teaching.  The TTT Program allows competent professionals in fields other than teaching an option for obtaining a license to teach in the state of Indiana.

For information on this program, please contact Peggy Lewis at plewis2@bsu.edu or 765-285-3263.
