Special Education

St. Ambrose University offers two undergraduate special education programs.

Instructional Strategist I: Mild and Moderate Program

The undergraduate Special Education endorsement program offers students the opportunity to combine learning in the classroom with experiences in the field directed toward working with students with mild and moderate disabilities in special education and inclusive settings. Strategies and methods for implementing research-based practices into actual teaching situations are considered.

Fifth Year Special Education Secondary Endorsement Program

The Special Education Endorsement Program is designed to assist in the development of teaching skills specific to working with adolescents with special needs. The Special Education Endorsement links the practical application of teaching to the theoretical underpinnings involved in human motivation and learning.
