If you are a paraeducator assisting in a public school classroom or working in a public after school program and want to become a teacher, Transition to Teaching (T3) for Paraeducators is designed for you.

The path to becoming a teacher does not need to be confusing and difficult for the busy working adult. To apply, contact Joelle Fraser, 510.670.7702; email para@acoe.org . Thanks to a generous grant from the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing, paraeducators who commit to working toward their teaching credential will receive scholarships to help pay for tuition and books.
