Overview

Alongside the important practical, theoretical, and professional skills needed to teach students with Mild to Moderate Support Needs, Loyola Marymount University's Special Education program includes the unique ability to earn a second credential in year one without any additional coursework.

Candidates that choose both credentials meet the requirements for both the Education Specialist Teaching Credential in Mild to Moderate Support Needs and the additional Multiple Subject (Elementary) Teaching Credential.
