The traditional route finds high school graduates attending four years of college to acquire a bachelor's degree that requires varying numbers of teaching methods and content courses with a student teaching capstone experience. Alternative approaches usually take students with a bachelor's degree in some other area and provide them with teacher education training lasting from only a few weeks to a couple of years.
