Post Baccalaureate Teacher Certificate
in Elementary Education

The post-baccalaureate teacher certification program at GBC enables students who have completed an undergraduate degree in a field other than elementary education to become eligible for licensure to teach in Nevada.

In order to apply to the program, a student must have already completed a baccalaureate degree from a regionally accredited institution.

The GBC Teacher Education Handbook (PDF*) includes program admission requirements and application forms. It also includes rules by which each student must abide once admitted to the program. To complete the program as efficiently as possible, it is imperative that students seek advising from education department personnel upon acceptance into the program.
