Teacher Education Council
The Teacher Education Council advises the Teacher Education Program and assumes primary responsibility for the successful implementation of that program. The council is composed of all the Teacher Education Unit faculty members, one faculty member who is not in the teacher education unit (elected by the faculty at large to serve a three-year term under a system of rotation), public school representatives, and student representatives (Adult & Graduate Studies and traditional). The Council meets monthly during the academic year and is led by the Chair of the Education Department.
