Overview

There are three divisions: 

• Division of Applied and Advanced Studies in Education , 
• Division of Curriculum and Instruction , and  
• Division of Special Education and Counseling   

The College offers programs leading to the Bachelor of Science degree (in Rehabilitation Services), the Bachelor of Arts degree (in Urban Learning), master’s degrees, a joint doctoral degree, one independent doctoral degree, as well as many CTC approved credentials  and certificate programs  for specified fields of professional service in California public schools and other public and private agencies. Because the campus is located in the heart of metropolitan Los Angeles, the College of Education is committed to enabling educational leaders to meet high standards and ensure the maximum learning and achievement potential of culturally and linguistically diverse urban learners. The vision of the college is “promoting an inclusive environment to support caring professional educators for the future so that all learners achieve their fullest potential.”
