Have you always wanted to be a teacher? Do you have a desire to influence the lives of students in a public or Christian school setting? Perhaps the double major undergraduate program in Teacher Education is the field of study for you.

Our Teacher Education program is a five-year program in which you will receive a bachelor's degree in Bible and Interdisciplinary Studies and a master's degree in Holistic Education. This program prepares Early Childhood K-3, Elementary K-6 and Middle School 4-8 teachers for licensure to teach in a public or Christian school setting. Dual licensure (K-12) is also available in ESL (English as a Second Language) and Special Education.

Our Teacher Education facilities are technologically advanced. Upon graduating from this program, you will be well-equipped with knowledge and experience in educational technology.

From your very first semester, you will have contact with children in area elementary and middle schools.

For more information about the program, visit the Teacher Education web site, go to the JBC Undergraduate Catalog (PDF), or look at the Program Guide Sheet (web or printable PDF).

The Teacher Education program is accredited by the Tennessee State Board of Education and the Association of Christian Schools International.
