Why Mountain BOCES?
Mountain BOCES offers a highly flexible, hybrid program that allows teachers to work at the pace that best suits their needs. Our program is a great fit for those that work well independently and with minimal oversight.
The Alternative Teacher Licensure Program has both an online, asynchronous course component as well as a Field-Experience requirement that gives teachers hands-on, real-time experience in the classroom.
