The Single Subject University Intern Program (SSUIP) is a 4-semester (often less) program designed for a teacher credential candidate who has a permanent, full-time teaching position in a public middle or high school.

The program is typically 4 semesters. A one (1) or two (2)-semester Early Completion Option (ECO) enables an Intern who has passed the National Evaluation Series Assessment of Professional Knowledge and the Teacher Performance Assessment (e.g., edTPA) to bypass most credential coursework and to advance to the final fieldwork courses. Please contact the Intern Coordinator for more information about the ECO.

Support and Guidance

Support and guidance are provided for each Intern. The instructional team, including the Intern Coordinator, the Seminar Instructor, and the school-based Support Provider, offer advisement and support to the Intern. The University Supervisor visits each Intern’s classroom, provides feedback, and completes progress reports and evaluations. More details about the SSUIP can be found in theÌýSSUIP Handbook.

Transfer of Credit

Many Interns begin as Traditional or ACT Credential Program candidates and complete some credential courses before they are hired as full-time teachers and transfer into the Intern Program. Transfer Interns then have a course sequence with a different starting point.

The Intern Coordinator will help you plan the sequence of courses that is most appropriate for you.
