Workforce Education and Development
This program may be started at any campus and is completed at Penn State University Park.

This major helps a person already skilled in a trade or craft (such as mechanics, masonry, heavy equipment operation and maintenance, carpentry, plumbing, nursing, food service, cosmetology, or dental or medical laboratory work) prepare to teach in a vocational-technical school, trade school, or community college, or to coordinate or supervise in a vocational education setting. Students choose from four options: Health Occupations Education, Industrial Education, or Occupational Home Economics Education— all of which lead to a teacher certificate— or a noncertificate Industrial Teaching option. To be certified, a candidate must have sufficient employment experience to establish competency in the occupation to be taught.

The B.S. in Workforce Education and Development is offered by Penn State's College of Education.

Please note: The University may make changes in policies, procedures, educational offerings, and requirements at any time. Please consult the most recent Degree Programs Bulletin for more detailed information.
