Dance Teacher Certification
K-12 in Connecticut
 

A slow but steady stream of dance professionals has been enrolling in courses leading to certification in dance. Summer and evening courses are available.

The professors who lead our “formal pathway” programs at WCSU (leading to theatre arts certification) and NVCC and CCSU (leading to dance certification) are extremely friendly and helpful. They welcome phone calls and are very willing to meet in person with any prospective candidates. You are encouraged to contact these professors directly:

WCSU (live theatre or video/film): Professor Pamela "Pam" McDaniel
