Abstract: Because our student population is increasing, 50,000 additional teachers will be needed in the United States within the next 10 years. Overcrowded teacher education programs in traditional universities cannot guarantee the availability of necessary classes, however, and students desiring a teaching credential anticipate an extended time frame for credential completion. There is growing interest in the benefits of accelerated programs to meet this critical need. Researchers have found that outcomes from such compressed courses equal (or surpass) outcomes from traditional course formats. National University employs such an accelerated format and has been highly successful in training future teachers for California classrooms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
