IUP’s health and physical education program recently developed a partnership with Butler County Community College (BC3) in developing a 2+2 pathway for students interested in earning teacher certification.
The agreement allows students enrolled in BC3’s associate degree in health and physical education (HPE) to seamlessly transfer into IUP’s HPE bachelor’s degree and complete it in only two years.
This agreement will financially benefit regional students by allowing them to complete a large majority of credits at a community college. Time at IUP will focus on coursework and experiences that prepares them to earn teacher certification in health and physical education. Partnerships like these are crucial to ensuring an affordable and streamlined education for ºÚÁϳԹÏÍø residents and their children.
