Welcome to the Education Program
at Barnard College!
 

The mission of the Barnard Education Program is to prepare students to become skilled and reflective teachers who can effectively respond to the learning needs of diverse learners, and create supportive and intellectually stimulating classroom communities. The program serves all undergraduates of Barnard College, Columbia College, Fu School of Engineering and Applied Science and General Studies who are interested in becoming certified teachers, working with young people in human service agencies, or preparing for careers related to education. 

The Education Program is accredited by the New York State Regents and approved by the New York State Education Department to recommend students for Initial Certification in Childhood Education (Grades 1-6) and Adolescence Education (Grades 7-12).  As part of the Interstate Certification Agreement students can obtain reciprocal certification in 41 states. We provide ongoing support to those who teach in New York City through our New Teacher Network.
