Is There Anyway To Get An Initial Teaching Certificate In Ny With A Bachelors In Something Other Than Edu?

AND are there any universities that offer an accredited online masters program for childhood education? I am graduating with a degree in Child and Family Studies this May, I want to be an elementary school teacher so I am looking at getting my masters in teaching. I would like to work while getting the degree though and I know there are a bunch of different ways to get your initial teaching certificate but I did not know if any of those would work for me. Any help would be really appreciated!!

    I am sure you are correct about the many ways to obtain a teaching certificate and a teaching job in New York State and elsewhere.
    In many states there are emergency conditions with a shortage of qualified teachers. If this is the case in New York State, I know that teachers of math and science were in short supply everywhere. However, I know no one wants to teach in early childhood programs because teachers feel that it is like babysitting. If you feel that you have abilities in those two areas, then apply under those emergency conditions and your will be able to get a job in a New York Public school system. Call the New York State Department of Education. and ask for the certification department. Talk to them in that office, and they will guide you through what you are seeking to do.
