Summary

Existing law establishes minimum requirements for the issuance of a preliminary teaching credential, multiple or single subject, which include possession of a baccalaureate degree in a subject other than professional education. This bill would no longer require, for issuance of a multiple subject teaching credential or a preliminary multiple subject teaching credential, that the baccalaureate degree be in a subject other than professional education.
