SMWC offers baccalaureate degree programs that prepare teacher candidates to obtain an Indiana initial teaching license. Candidates may choose from two Indiana teacher licensing structures: REPA (Revisions for Educator Preparation and Accountability) or Rules 2002. Coursework and clinical experiences for Rules 2002 must be completed by August 31, 2013, and license applications must be approved by December 31, 2013.
