Over the course of the program, you will interact with and receive support from instructors and coaches who understand the demands of today's classroom. You will transfer the methods learned in the coursework to real world application in your own classrooms.

FTCC's Residency Licensure program is committed to equipping future educators with the knowledge, skills, and empathy needed to effectively serve a wide range of student populations and address your unique academic, social and emotional needs. The program recognizes the rich tapestry of backgrounds, cultures, and experiences that students bring into the classroom and strives to foster a welcoming learning environment where every student feels valued and supported.

Through peer collaboration, coaching, and instructor support, candidates learn to differentiate instruction, adapt teaching methods, and provide personalized support to ensure that every student has the opportunity to succeed academically and thrive socially and emotionally.

Ultimately, FTCC's RLCP strives to support program completion and NCDPI licensure eligibility through highly effective and culturally competent educators who are well-prepared to meet the academic, social, and emotional needs of individual students. Through a combination of rigorous coursework, practical classroom experience, continuous partnership with local school systems, and reflection we empower our candidates to create supportive learning environments where all students can thrive and reach their full potential.
