Online Degrees In Education
Every state licenses
teachers through its Board of Education. To become licensed, teachers
must have a bachelor degree, finished a training program with credits
in education and their subjects, and go through a "student
teaching" program supervised by a professional teacher. Teachers
can achieve national certification through the National Board for
Professional Teaching Standards.

Earning
a Master degree often results in an increase in salary. It is also
a way to specialize in a new field. For example, a teacher may currently
be licensed to teach preschool through third grade. A Master degree
in Secondary Education will help him or her move into high school
teaching. A degree in Educational Administration or Curriculum Design
may facilitate a move into an administrative role.
Job outlook for teachers
is very good as many baby boomers are reaching retirement age. There
is also a demand for special education teachers due to rising enrollments
in those classes.
