AYA educators enhance student learning by exploring subjects more thoroughly than in middle and high school, while broadening their global awareness. The core program blends academic concepts with hands-on training to qualify for teaching certification. The AYA Education curriculum mandates specialization in one of these disciplines: Comprehensive Language Arts, Comprehensive Social Studies, Comprehensive Mathematics, or Science.
Before student teaching, candidates must complete a minimum of 100 hours of fieldwork across diverse educational environments.
The final phase of teacher preparation involves supervised student teaching, guided by both university faculty and experienced classroom educators.
