In recognition of the valuable experiences and intensive study provided by the ECIS International Teacher Certificate (ITC) process and review of portfolios by Cambridge Examination systems, candidates for FAST TRAIN master’s degree programs may have their portfolios evaluated for graduate credit. Portfolios will be evaluated and awarded credit on an individual basis for candidates applying for degree programs. In recognition of our partnership with ECIS up to six (6) graduate credits will be awarded for a flat tuition rate of $1,000 for the six credit hours.
MASON-FAST TRAIN has awarded over 1,000 degrees to teachers in some forty countries, many of which include Virginia State Licensure in Elementary and English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESL) as part of our pre-approved state licensure program. Additionally, George Mason University is only one of six international universities authorized by the International Baccalaureate Organization to offer Level 1 and Level 2 Teacher Awards through FAST TRAIN Programs’ Advanced Studies in IB. Finally, FAST TRAIN offers the unique online Learning Support Certificate for those teachers working with special needs or learning challenged students. All of FAST TRAIN programs are designed around working adults’ busy schedules and include in-class and online coursework for maximum flexibility and enhanced quality. All classes are taught by highly qualified practitioner-focused international faculty.
