CAREER SWITCHER--It's not too late for you to become a teacher!

The career switcher program is a fast track to securing a teaching license in the areas of math and science.

Long known as a great place to start a bachelor’s degree, Virginia’s community colleges now offer professionals with bachelor’s degrees an opportunity to participate in an innovative program to become teachers in the critically needed subject areas of foreign languages, math or sciences. 

Virginia’s community colleges have become the latest providers in a statewide "career switcher" initiative.  The natural network of the 23 community colleges located throughout the state, combined with the VCCS distance learning capabilities, offer ideal access to this opportunity.  The VCCS Career Switcher Program provides accessible, effective teacher preparation to meet the needs of the commonwealth of Virginia for skilled, talented, diverse, and highly qualified teachers.
