Bachelor of Arts - Spanish - Pre-Credential

In most majors, candidates for this credential will normally fulfill the single subject matter preparation program by completing the appropriate education option in the major. Any exceptions to this procedure are noted at the end of this section. In addition to the single subject matter preparation program, completion of an additional professional education program is required to qualify for a California teaching credential. Professional education (credential) programs are available through the School of Education. 

The departmental credential advisor is responsible for verifying that the subject matter preparation program has been completed. If students are interested in obtaining a teaching credential, they can confer with the appropriate credential advisor early in their University career. Department credential advisors can assist them in planning an educational program that meets both major and credential requirements.
