Welcome Fall 2025 Admit
Congratulations on your admission to the Multiple Subject or Dual Credential Program!
We're thrilled to have you on board. As you prepare for the upcoming semester, please take a moment to review the following tasks and important dates to ensure you’re all set. If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to contact your program coordinator.
| # | Task | Description | Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Attend a Multiple Subject Registration Orientation |
The Multiple Subject Registration Orientation is mandatory for newly admitted teacher candidates and must be attended before candidates can register for their courses. |
The program will email details once an official date is available. |
| 2 | Register for the Teacher Education Induction Ceremony & Orientation |
The Fall 2025 orientation is mandatory for teacher candidates (not required for teacher residents) enrolling in their first clinical practice course (EHD 178). This day will include critical information about the Teacher Education Program, the Education Specialist Credential Program, clinical practice experiences, and the Fresno Assessment of Student Teachers (FAST). If you're not enrolling in a clinical practice course this semester, please wait to attend the orientation until the semester you plan to enroll. |

| 3 | Complete the Clinical Practice Application |
The Office of Clinical Practice (OCP) coordinates placements and assigns university coaches. To communicate your placement preferences, please complete the clinical practice application by the priority deadline date (teacher candidates in the Ag program do not need to complete this application). This also helps OCP identify coach hiring needs for the upcoming semester. After submission, your name will be added to the OCP placement sheet.
