What Sets Them Apart

iteachTEXAS was founded in 2003 as the first fully-online teacher certification program in Texas. You name it, they have it. Whether you want to become certified as a teacher or a principal, iteachTexas has you covered.

iteach is the only educator preparation program in the U.S. that combines a unique online format with a flexible payment plan and national accreditation.

“iteachTexas was an excellent choice for me to pursue my career in education!

Could not have asked for a better group of people to assist me along my path.”

“I completed the ACT Houston-at Dallas Summer Institute on July 1st, 2008, and I wanted to share with you my thoughts on the best instructor I have ever had. My instructor went above and beyond to prepare us for our exam and our first year in the classroom. I received my test results today and I can truly say that my success was mainly in part to my instructor’s attention, guidance, and instruction.”
