Elementary State Licensure
|
My
name is Patricia Griffin and I am education advisor (licensure
option) at Roanoke Bible College. The licensure option provides
qualified Roanoke students the opportunity to dual-enroll at
Elizabeth City State University (ECSU) as a transient student.
However, most of your education courses are taken at RBC with a few
at ECSU. Your degree would be from RBC. After completing the
licensure requirements, students have their names and records
submitted to the North Carolina State
Department of Public
Instruction for the purpose of receiving state licensure for
teaching in public schools.
The Elementary Education minor with teacher
licensure option now requires a minimum of four and a half years to
complete. Licensure will enable one to teach in the state of North
Carolina in K-6 education. North Carolina has reciprocal teaching
agreements with about 36 other states. We also have
a secondary education program with ECSU. It requires additional
hours in the chosen subject (math, history, English, etc.)
Some service and career opportunities include the
following:
• Teacher in Christian School
• Teacher in public schools
• Teacher in foreign land
• Teaching English as a second language
• Teacher at home (home schooling)
• Teaching as a professional tutor
• Youth Director
• Children’s Minister

Student Testimonies
|
I transferred to RBC with an Associate’s
Degree from another Bible college. I wanted to complete my
bachelor’s degree but did not know how I was going to do it. I
contacted RBC and learned of the licensure program with Elizabeth
City State University.This program was exactly what I was looking
for at the exact time. I enrolled in both schools and began taking
classes to prepare me for my career as a teacher. The schedules
always seemed to work out without conflicting with each other. I
studied under several great professors and had a wonderful advisor
at RBC.
I am currently teaching 6th grade in Tuscon,
Arizona. I am grateful to RBC and ECSU for this program
