California Commission on Teacher Credentialing-approved Induction Programs

The School of Extended Education partners with schools and districts throughout California to provide graduate-level professional development credit for induction work done by beginning teachers or administrators and support providers. Academic credit toward specific University of Massachusetts Global Master’s degree programs (listed below) may be awarded for successful completion of certain induction programs.

Induction Credit toward Master’s Degree

University of Massachusetts Global has developed a pathway for teachers who successfully complete a CTC-approved Induction Program to receive a block credit grant toward a Master’s degree.

Up to 7 credits from BTSA or General Education Induction may be applied to the Master of Arts in Education, Teaching and Learning. This program is for educational professionals seeking to become transformational leaders and innovative teachers. Students will learn ground-breaking ideas and put them into practice immediately to transform their classrooms and the educational landscape in California.
