Bluffton University is one of just five universities in the state approved by the Ohio Department of Higher Education to provide coursework and experiences for an alternative pathway to teaching for professionals who later felt the call to the classroom.
The Alternative Resident Educator Institute, which consists of six courses (seven for the intervention specialist license) can be completed in classes on Bluffton’s campus and in just one semester.
