Teaching Credential Programs

Office of Clinical Practice

Science Experiment

The Office of Clinical Practice, formerly 'Field Placements', coordinates the placement of teacher candidates at school sites for their fieldwork courses. We place multiple subject candidates for their second and third phase placements, single subject candidates for their first phase placements, and education specialist candidates for all three phases.

Our teacher candidates work in a diverse portion of California with a wide range of demographics. Candidates are placed in the following counties: Fresno, Kings, Madera and Tulare.

Below you will find a database of resources.

Tk20 Overview & Purchasing

Tk20 is a data management system that you will use to digitally submit your field placement observations, evaluations, and State mandated teacher performance assessments. This system will give you access to your student files for seven years.

This account should be purchased before you apply for your first field placement course.

Purchase a Fresno State Tk20 account: Please click on this link using your Google Chrome or Firefox web browser. This will take you to a payment screen where you can purchase your account with a credit card, money order, or cashier’s check (processed by VeriSign). The cost to purchase through the Tk20 website is approximately $110.00. You will need your Fresno State email address and Student ID Number to complete the purchase. Please Note: Accounts are activated based on enrollment, so you will be able to login once you are enrolled in credential courses, though it may take 24 - 48 hours for the enrollment to process.
