Teacher Licensure Programs

Please join us at any of our recruitment events to learn more about our program offerings and ask questions! Our recruitment specialist and academic advisors will be offering information sessions online all year and in person across the islands during the regular academic school year. These sessions are open to the public and will go over all undergraduate and graduate programs available to become a licensed teacher in the state of Hawai‘i!

Please join us to learn more about:

  • Becoming a Teacher (benefits, requirements, salary, incentives, employment needs, etc.)
  • Teacher licensure programs (Bachelor of Education, Post Baccalaureate Certificate, and Master of Education in Teaching options)
  • Tuition funding opportunities available (scholarships, Grow Our Own stipends, SPED stipends, etc.)
