Professional Dispositions

 

In addition to demonstrating mastery in each of the program learning outcomes the School of Education has adopted a set of six professional dispositions that are essential for prospective educators to possess.

 

These dispositions include:

 

• Professional Demeanor & Responsibility
• Commitment to Learning for ALL Students
• Communication
• Collaboration
• Self-Reflection
• Ethics

 

Professional dispositions are assessed at several different points in the program by specific instructors and university supervisors. If there are concerns about a candidate’s dispositions, action plans for remediation will be enacted.

 

You will also complete a self-assessment of professional dispositions at the beginning and end of the program.
