Bachelor's Degree
Those pursuing a career as K-12 educators need to earn a degree in their chosen subject area along with completing the teacher training program offered by the Department of Teaching and Learning. Candidates must follow the teaching specialization within their degree program, which often has distinct course prerequisites compared to non-teaching tracks, as the curriculum is structured to fulfill state certification requirements. After successfully finishing both the degree with teaching specialization and the secondary licensure program, graduates qualify for a standard Montana teaching credential in their field of study.
