10 Ways an Online Accelerated Teacher Certification (OATCERT)
Can Change a Teacher's Life
If you're considering an Online Accelerated Teaching Certificate, now is the time to get started. Check out these top ten reasons for earning your certificate now. It'll change the way you think about your career, your education, and maybe even your life.
10. Two words: "Online classes." The internet has made everything easier. And that includes education. St. Joseph's state-of-the-art online environment makes learning a breeze. And by "breeze," we mean 24/7 tech support and live assistance from experienced educators.
9. Fewer fill-ups. Nothing is certain but death, taxes and high gas prices. With online classes from St. Joseph's University, count on a very, very small fuel budget. So you can leave that gas card in your wallet where it belongs.
8. Casual dress. With all of life's many responsibilities, who has time to get dressed up for class? With St. Joseph's OATCERT, you won’t have to. So feel free to go for a more casual look. Like curlers and a bathrobe, for instance.
7. Flexible class times. So you're the night owl of the bunch. Hey, every family's got one. Well, now you can do something constructive at 3:00 AM. Like starting a new career and fulfilling your life's dream. Hey, it beats the heck out of M.A.S.H re-runs.
6. Learn all the stuff you were supposed to learn in school. If you're a little foggy on the French Inquisition and the Pythagorean Theorem, you won’t be for long. St. Joseph's offers exciting concentrations in Math, Science, Social Studies and English.
5. Who's the boss? Hint: It ain't Tony Danza. When you go to school online, you can eat, drink and take all the calls you want. So all that stuff about "no food or beverage in class?" Forget about it.
4. "Keep your day job." Sure, you've heard this advice while singing, but now it applies to school as well. St. Joseph's flexible scheduling means you can keep up with work and family responsibilities while training to enter your new career.
3. Reciprocity. (Whatever the heck that is.) Actually, reciprocity is a great benefit of the OATCERT program. This means that your teaching certificate is "reciprocally" honored in 33 states besides Pennsylvania. So you'll be qualified to work just about anywhere in the country.
2. Inspire the next Einstein. It's impossible to over-estimate the impact teachers have on their students. As a secondary teacher, you'll help shape the minds and ideals of a generation. And who knows? Maybe your classes will be the springboard to greatness for the next Hawking or Einstein.
1. Change lives. Educational attainment is often the dividing line between poverty and wealth. By molding your students into perceptive learners, you'll shape their interactions with the world and help them achieve the American dream.
Well, there it is. A great career and a great path for getting there. So, what are you waiting for, slow poke? Call us or enroll online today, and begin a fulfilling career in secondary education. OATCERT - it's the smart choice for smart professionals.
