Overview
The Center X Teacher Education Programs (TEP) provide high-quality pre- and in-service education to improve urban schooling for California's racially, culturally, and linguistically diverse children. To serve a wide range of aspiring and accomplished educators, Center X offers three types of programs:
- Credential + Masters Program: For aspiring teachers who are interested in a university-based course of graduate study and full-year urban teaching residency, Center X offers a two-year program that is open to college graduates as well as UCLA seniors who are majoring in mathematics or science.

- Credential Program: For aspiring teachers who are interested in earning a teaching credential, Center X offers a one year program as an internship ( TeachLA/Compton ) or undergraduate option (for UCLA Music students only).
- M.Ed. in Urban Teaching: For experienced educators who are interested in deepening their professional knowledge, Center X offers a one-year course of graduate study.
Each of these programs is guided by a common set of core principles and practices that prepare both elementary and secondary teachers to be transformative educators.
The Teacher Education Masters Program recruitment events are now in progress. To attend one, please see our calendar for specific dates.
