Hixon Teacher Preparation 项目

Hixon Teacher Preparation Program

(TK-12)

Founded in 2000 at Pasadena City College, and as a result of a large donation by the late Alexander and Adelaide Hixon, the Hixon TPP was created in order to provide a support system for students pursuing a career in teaching.

The program provides both curricular and transfer information components for the prospective teacher and helps PCC students streamline the process to become a TK-12+ teacher and simultaneously achieve a bachelor degree and teaching credential upon transfer to a four-year institution.

What Program 服务 Do We Provide?

Some of the many services the Hixon TPP provides students are:

  • Hixon Resource Center for students to study, print, practice presentations, and much more (儿童发展 中心- 219)
  • 转移 and teaching pathway information
  • Academic advisement 
  • CBEST test preparation and study sessions
  • Education courses aimed at preparing equity-minded and effective classroom teachers, including EDUC 13 (Introduction to Elementary Teaching), EDUC 30 (Teaching as a Profession) 和其他人!  
  • Internship opportunities, including a partnership with Polytechnic School in Pasadena
  • Yearly scholarship opportunities
  • Invited speakers in the teaching field across a variety of topics
  • Partnerships with local colleges and universities, including several Cal States, to help PCC students transfer into Bachelors/Teaching Credential programs
