Professional Development & Credit Courses for Teachers
BCAC runs university credit courses mainly for educators – three credits awarded by the International Program for Educators, Buffalo State – SUNY – State University of New York. The courses can optionally be taken for credit or for personal enrichment and pleasure only.
The difference is that non-credit participants are not required to submit the illustrated written assignment required for credit, although many participants choose to do this anyway.When they do so, the assignment is assessed and graded exactly like those submitted for credit.
A BCAC Certificate of Participation is issued is all course participants. Participants include, not just teachers of Art, Social Studies or Literature, but educators across the full spectrum of disciplines and school divisions – High, Middle and Elementary Schools and individuals interested in exploring and developing their creativity.
No obvious artistic, writing ability or previous training is required or needed. The courses are primarily aimed at professional enrichment and expansion in the context of a holistic attitude and approach to education.
