TEAC Program Review

The Teacher Education Accreditation Council (TEAC) is dedicated to improving academic degree programs for professional educators – those who will teach and lead in schools, pre-Kindergarten through grade 12.

The organizational goal of TEAC is to support the preparation of competent, caring, and qualified professional educators. TEAC accredits undergraduate and graduate programs for education professionals in order to assure the public about the quality of college and university programs. The education program, not the college, school, department, or other administrative unit of Central Michigan University, receives TEAC accreditation.
