Bachelor of Music in Pre-Teacher Certification
Our degree is designed to equip students to pursue careers in teaching elementary, junior high or high school music in the private or public school setting.
We are the only private college in Orange County that is endorsed by The California Commission on Teacher Credentialing for public schools for the Bachelor of Music in Pre-Teacher Certification (Music Education). This means that our students who successfully complete this degree may directly enter a credentialing program without first taking the three CSET subtests.
Current students complete classroom observations, participate in field work with a master teacher, attend professional conferences, and are active members of the student chapter of the National Association for Music Education (NAfME).
Recent alumni have completed Master of Education degrees and secured teaching positions in school districts such as Los Angeles, Newport-Mesa, Orange, Placentia, San Bernardino, and Tustin.
