Bilingual Authorization
The bilingual teaching authorization prepares individuals to provide English language development, specially designed academic instruction in English, and academic content instruction in both English and the language of their biligual authorization. The Bilingual authorization will be earned concurrently with a multiple subject or single subject credential.
The bilingual authorization requires one additional course in addition to fulfilling the state subject matter requirements by exam, or through approved undergraduate course work. (Cal Lutheran undergraduates who earn a Spanish major or minor are able to waive the exam requirements.)
