The Professional Teaching Certification Program (PTC) will provide non-education graduates, who intend to teach, with 18 units of professional education courses. Non-education graduates are allowed to take the LET because of this.

do they have a MSN program major in Occupational health?

and to take LET is really my goal to be a licensed teacher :yeah: Hopefully I will pass all the subjects. Professors are very strict in terms of academic requirements and exams knowing that it is UP

Hi NurseHarbee :bow: Thanks for your information. Most of the subjects for the Diploma in Health Professions Education are already the subjects I am taking up for my PTC at UPOU and at my MAN program( major in Clinical Teaching) at Trinity. However, I will still think about this after I finish all degree programs that I am having right now.

@ Nurseharbee: at UPOU, you will only be allowed to take 9 units per semester. So 1 year for the whole 18 units for you to complete the program. It is done through distance learning or through online education. However, there are other Colleges that offers the whole 18 units within one sem. However, I chose to done it thru online since I am also taking up my MAN degree and hopefully to have my work as a staff nurse:typing

hi!!

Do you have any idea on how much is the per unit of the said course? I guess this is the same as the "METHODS"

as other schools refer to it, which at most is offered summer ( all 18 units).

Thanks.

God Bless!!

@ nurseharbee: Kindly inquire first at PWU or UERM if they will be giving credits to the subjects you had taken already since in TRINITY, it is always back to zero. Meaning, they do not give credits to subjects taken outside Trinity. Good start that you are planning to pursue your Diploma in Health Education. I came to a point to also take Masters in Public Health at UP Manila, however, I really need to find a job experience in terms of public health or community health nursing to qualify for the admission :cry:
