Teaching Proficiency
This is satisfied by a successful Teaching Assistantship (TA), as determined by the faculty member for whom the student serves as TA. Two (2) TA-ships are required, due to an SCS-level requirement. Typically, one of these will be for an undergraduate class, and one for a graduate-level class. Also, one of the two TA-ships may be in some form of pre-approved "alternate service," such as a v-unit. The program coordinator must be notified in advance of a TA-ship or it may not count.
