The Alternative Careers in Teaching (act!) program is an individually tailored, alternative pathway to initial Wisconsin licensure as a secondary (grades 6-12) mathematics or science teacher. The program is tailored to adult career-changers looking for an alternative path to licensure that is flexible, fast, and convenient. Requirements for entry into the act! program include:
- A minimum of a Bachelor’s degree from a regionally accredited institution. Individuals best suited for the act! program have an undergraduate degree in a Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) related field.
- 5 or more years of work experience (including employment experience while in the program)
The act! program is a cooperative program between the University of Wisconsin Colleges and the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. The program is structured to meet the needs of the adult learner. To be contacted by a program representative, click here.
