Yes – if you want to become a teacher, then Liberty University’s bachelor’s in education degrees can help you get there.

If you want to meet all the requirements for teacher licensure with a bachelor’s program, then consider one of our BEd degrees online. These programs are designed to help you fulfill all licensure requirements. This includes core content as well as practical application during student teaching.

If you want to gain an education foundation that can lead to a master’s program, consider a BS in Education program. These degrees are designed to give you all the foundational knowledge you need to work in the field of education. However, this program does not meet state licensure requirements. Upon graduation, you will need to pursue a program like our Master of Arts in Teaching if you are still interested in licensure.

Your degree will be respected if you are attending a reputable institution with appropriate accreditation. Whether or not your program is online is irrelevant to most employers, but it could make all the difference in your experience as a student.

All of our School of Education initial and advanced licensure programs are accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP). This means you can be confident that you’re receiving an education of the highest quality.

Additionally, our BEd online requires you to complete student teaching at a school near you. This gives you real classroom experience in a location that is convenient to you. All of your other courses are completed online when it is convenient for you.
