Have questions about becoming a licensed teacher in Nevada?
We’ve got answers! If you don’t see your answer here, please call us at 844.58.TEACH, or send an email to Teach@NevadaTeachers.com.
To get started, you will pay a one-time enrollment fee of $95, which grants you access to the online teacher training program. While you are preparing to be hired, there is a monthly access fee of $95 that allows you continual access to your coursework and training. Once you are hired, you will be responsible for paying the program fee. The $95 monthly payments you made prior to being hired will be deducted from the total program fee of $4,700. After you are hired, the remaining balance will be divided into 12 monthly payments.
You can get started now! We have rolling admissions throughout the year, all you need is your official transcript.
If you reach the conclusion that teaching is not for you, we understand. We want you to do what is best for you, which is why if you decide to stop moving forward in the program, you are not responsible for paying the remaining balance.
There are options for admission into the program if your GPA is below a 2.5. Please apply to the program to learn more about these options.
You are eligible to begin looking for a teaching position as soon as you have completed your Classroom Readiness training for elementary or special education.
