Teaching can be one of the most rewarding (and challenging) vocations. Earning your NYS teacher certification can be your window of opportunity to the world:
- Take your teacher certification anywhere - Earning your teacher certification in New York allows you to meet most standards in other states, meaning you can become a teacher almost anywhere in the U.S. or abroad!
- Start a new career - Share your knowledge and experience with eager young minds. You can prepare to earn NYS teacher certification in 16-24 months, with the potential to specialize in a content area!
- Enjoy a rewarding retirement - If you are looking to remain active in your retirement, the best places in the U.S. to find a teaching job also happen to be the top retirement destinations (according to Forbes' list of "Best Places for a Working Retirement")

In today’s society, it can seem almost impossible for a person with adult responsibilities to return to school full-time. That person may struggle with the question of how to make full-time college fit into a full-time schedule. Whether it be preparing dinner for your children after they return home from school or meeting deadlines on the job, these, among others, are valid concerns for anyone pondering the notion of returning to school. However, attending college full-time is achievable with proper planning and preparation.
