Program Accreditation
The ISU Physics Teacher Education program is accredited by the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE), the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE), and the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA). The program was most recently reaccredited by NCATE, NSTA, and ISBE during the spring of 2003. It first received NATIONAL ACCREDITATION by both NCATE and NSTA during 1998, and was the first PTE program in the state to be so recognized. Accreditation by state and national agencies ensures students of the highest quality educational experience possible, and should be an important consideration for anyone attempting to decide which institution to attend for collegiate studies.
