WGU Education Programs

[ss20ts]

You need student teaching for the master's degree. You asked about getting a master's degree through WGU. You need the master's for the professional certification.

Yes, I am aware of that. I stated that in my previous post. I can get my initial cert with completion of just the coursework (and my gen ed classes) and then once I’ve completed a masters (with student teaching) I can apply for professional certification. 

I came here to ask about experiences with WGU education programs. I know what the requirements are for NYS certification.

Like I said, I wouldn't go with WGU for a master's in teaching with wanting that certification. I would go with a school in NY. Anytime a license is involved it's best to go with a school in that state.
