H3 Change lives—discover a rewarding career in Teaching!

BODY Teachers change lives by opening new worlds for students and inspiring them to reach their goals. The Education Department at Western Wyoming Community College provides programs and classes for students interested in a teaching career. We offer students three program options: Early Childhood, Elementary, and Secondary Teacher Preparation. Students all three programs will learn foundational principles, instructional strategies, and best classroom practices appropriate to their chosen field.

One of the strengths the Education Department offers is that Westerns provides students the opportunity to participate in preschool and/or public-school classroom activities as a practicum student. Western’s students have hands-on experiences that teach them what it means to be a preschool, elementary, junior high, or high school teacher. This will give you the confidence you need to walk into a classroom and get started!

Where to attend college is a big decision. When I decided to go to Western, I was unsure. Now I am certain that I made the right choice. The classrooms encourage personal thought and have allowed me to customize my learning experience. I have never been more excited about my education until now and know that because of this I will use what I have learned for the rest of life.-— Clarissa Barton
