Teaching Artist Certificate
Discover the transformative power of teaching artistry and the vocation’s impact in creating arts education that is innovative and equitable. Apply to the new Teaching Artist Certificate program to develop the skills necessary to facilitate creative lessons with diverse learners in classroom, community and healthcare settings.
The Teaching Artist Certificate is a five-week, in-person summer program that offers holistic training in justice-oriented arts education pedagogy and business practices. The curriculum emphasizes culturally responsive and inclusive teaching practices as well as the significance of arts engagement in fostering social and emotional growth. Through a combination of theory, coursework, fieldwork, networking opportunities and reflective evaluation, candidates gain personal and professional development that will prepare them for the many pathways of teaching artistry.
The Teaching Artist Certificate program is a partnership between Rutgers University-Newark (RU–N) and New Jersey Performing Arts Center (NJPAC). The curriculum is facilitated by faculty from RU-N’s Urban Education department and Arts, Culture & Media department, NJPAC teaching artists and nationally-recognized experts in the field including author and teaching artist Eric Booth.
Applications are open from December 2, 2024 to April 2, 2025.
Acceptance to the program will be announced on a rolling basis.
