On January 24, 2025, the School of Education was pleased to welcome Bridgett McDowell from the Michigan Department of Education for a morning session dedicated to preparing our future educators for the Michigan Test for Teacher Certification (MTTC). In alignment with Michigan Compiled Laws (MCL) 380.1531, which mandates a testing program as part of the state’s teacher certification process, the MTTC ensures that prospective teachers possess the professional readiness and content knowledge required to serve in Michigan schools. The MTTC currently includes subject area tests that candidates must complete for each endorsement they seek. The Rochester Christian University School of Education remains committed to providing a comprehensive educator preparation program to meet the needs of our aspiring teachers.
