The Elementary Education Teacher Preparation Program (EETPP)
Adams State College is connecting with Arapahoe Community College and Douglas County Schools so you can connect to your future in teaching. The Elementary Education Teacher Preparation Program (EETPP) allows you take your first two years of course work at your community college, and then transfer to ASC for the final two years. The difference is that you take your upper-division ASC classes in Douglas County without traveling to the ASC campus in Alamosa.
What are the benefits of EETPP?
- Turn your associate's degree into a bachelor's degree
- Expand your career options
- Study without traveling far from home
- Take upper division ASC classes with your neighbors at your local community college
- Save with low ASC tuition/fees
- Enjoy flexible evening and weekend scheduling.
