Summer Professional Development

B-W’s MAEd in Mild/Moderate Educational Needs prepares teachers to fulfill a statewide need for intervention specialists able to work in inclusive settings as consultant teachers, small group instructors, resource room teachers, transition service coordinators and co-teachers in an inclusive classroom.

This program is 39-42 semester hours and allows teachers to add the Intervention Specialist Mild/Moderate Educational Needs license (K-12) to an existing teaching license.

  • This part-time program may be completed in as little as two years.
  • Classes are scheduled in the early evening during the school year and mornings during the summer.
  • The program includes a summer practicum in which students work in a supervised setting with children who have been diagnosed with learning disabilities. 
  • Successful completion of Praxis II is required for license eligibility in Mild/Moderate Educational Needs.  Completion of the program includes a comprehensive exam.
  • All candidates will need to complete one undergraduate course in education (EDU 204, Teaching of Phonics). 
  • The Mild/Moderate Educational Needs specialization may be selected as part of the License+Master's Program.  License+Master’s students should plan additional time to complete their program due to undergraduate course and clinical requirements.
