License Alternative Masters Program (LAMP) in Special Education
The License Alternative Masters Program (LAMP) in Special Education is designed for
the student who already holds a baccalaureate degree in a major
other than education and wants to become a licensed teacher in the State of Ohio .
The program provides coursework that will lead toward the
initial four year residence teacher license in Intervention Specialist and, at the
same time, meet the requirements for a Masters Degree in
Education.
In order to be eligible for the SPED LAMP program, you must meet the following criteria:
- Hold a Bachelor’s degree
- Have a GPA of at least 2.7 (cumulative of all undergraduate work)
The SPED LAMP program consists of a variety of courses that can typically be completed in two academic years. It includes field experiences, as well as a 75 day student teaching experience.
This is a comprehensive licensure-focused program. While the content of the courses represents entry-level knowledge and skills, the requirements for graduate students recognize that these students should demonstrate advanced academic ability.
