TEACh 3

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.

About TEACh³

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.

"Love that this school is the only one to offer a completely online program for my degree. That is why I switched to Coastline. I had so many classes I needed for my major that I couldn't take with my work schedule - I put off these classes year after year. When I found Coastline's program I thought it was too good to be true! So happy to be graduating from here next month, it's been a great program!" -Coastline Student, Sacramento area
