Division of Professional Teacher Preparation

This division focuses on the pedagogical component of educator preparation with an emphasis on diversity in an effort to meet the needs of the island’s public school system. Upon completion of our educator preparation programs, candidates meet the certification requirements for Guam. The Master of Education programs develop and advance candidates’ skills to meet high need areas to support our local and regional school districts.

PTP faculty members advise all students who are declared majors of the respective programs.
