Teacher and Students in a Classroom

Gain an introduction to teaching and make a positive impact in students’ lives by earning a transfer Associate of Arts (AA) in Teaching. With this degree, you'll be prepared to transfer to a four-year institution to pursue a bachelor's degree to become a K-12 teacher. 

When you are ready to transfer, NWACC's partnerships with regional colleges and universities makes the process convenient. You can transfer your associate degree to pursue further knowledge in different areas of education such as elementary, secondary, business, family, consumer science or special education.
