Students who meet requirements set by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing and Single Subject Intern Credential Program may enter the Intern Program. These students receive an intern credential, which entitles them to teach in a public school while taking their coursework at CSUF in the late afternoon, evenings or on the weekends. The curriculum of the program is a multi-semester experience, including prerequisites, pre-service coursework and fieldwork teaching. Students progress through EDSC 400 and their first full-time teaching semester of the program as a cohort group. In the second, full-time teaching semester as an Intern in the program, they are in cohort groups by subject area.
Intern candidates must complete a module and EDSC 410 prior to enrollment as an Internship candidate in the first semester of the program.
Candidates who become interns in their second semester are required to have completed all of the entrance requirements and four prerequisites above, plus 15-18 units of secondary coursework.
