Hopeful teachers leaving North Georgia College & State University’s School of Education will now have a degree from a nationally accredited program. The school recently earned full accreditation from the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education for its undergraduate- and graduate-level programs. The national accreditation is required by the University System of Georgia and is part of a seven-year review process that included a site visit in February.
