TEACh3 is a transfer program and pathway for Coastline, Golden West and Orange Coast College students seeking a career in education. Coastline is the District's Distance Learning Provider for TEACh3 courses - all the TEACh3 courses we offer are online.
Ultimate goals for TEACh3 students vary. Some are seeking a K-12 teaching credential while others are working towards fulfilling ECE units or fulfilling fieldwork requirements only. Some students are currently paraprofessionals already in a classroom while other may be taking a few courses just to see if they want to pursue a credential or classroom career as a paraprofessional. Still others are homeschooling parents looking to pick up some skills in teaching while some students are working on our Certificate in Educational Studies only.
Coastline is the District's Distance Learning Provider for TEACh3 courses - all the TEACh3 courses we offer are online. Students preferring the same courses in a traditional classroom format should check course schedules at Golden West College or Orange Coast.
