Teaching Biology in the UK

May 1, 2009
Q:
Next year I will graduate from a British university with a BSc degree in nutrition, and would like to teach. Will this degree allow me entry into a PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education) program for biology teaching? How long does the program last?
A:
While nutrition and biology are related subjects, you might need to supplement your nutrition degree with additional biology-specific courses. Since the PGCE course typically focuses on developing teaching skills, and not on the teaching subject, you should ensure your knowledge of biology is complete before you attend.

Studying Social Work Online

April 17, 2009
Q:
I live in Montana and I am searching for an online bachelor's degree program in social work. I don't recognize the schools I've found and worry that I won't find a good one. Will my associate's degree be credited toward a bachelor's program, and do I need to attend classes locally for an online degree?
A:
Before you enroll in an online bachelor's program in social work, make sure the program is accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE). At the least, if the program is not accredited, ask if they are in candidacy for accreditation, and when they expect to be accredited. As long as the program is in candidacy when you enroll and you graduate after it becomes accredited, your degree will be from an accredited program.
