Listed below are all of the schools offering teacher education programs in Puerto Rico. If you are trying to become a teacher, and you plan on working in Puerto Rico, you should definitely take a look at the Department of Education’s website (links at the top of this page).

The Teacher Education market is one where the individual states make a lot of their own decisions about how teachers need to be prepared, which degree programs are "approved", etc.

What Should I Know Before I Look Through These Schools?

There are a couple of terms that are worth defining as you research programs: "in-service" means programs for current teachers (or people who have gone through an undergraduate teacher education program), and "pre-licensure" means programs for people who want to become teachers.

Also, as a rule, you should contact multiple schools if you are seriously considering going back for a degree or certificate in education. There can sometimes be very significant differences in tuition, admissions requirements, and so on, even between schools that you might think are very similar. So, it’s always a good idea to contact a number of schools and do a little comparison shopping.
