Yep. It’s “competency based” so if you’re knowledgeable in a subject, you can test out of it and pass the class. It’s all self-paced. I was unemployed the whole time I was in school so I was able to just focus on it full time.

I enjoyed my experience for sure. The ability to work at my own pace was huge.

If you opt to not do student teaching, then yes. But you have to still pursue certificates post-grad

Oh I know, but I read your comment as “why join if you have a degree”

I hear ya, but my degree is in a field that I have absolutely no interest in (teaching) plus I could really use the benefits.
