Stanford University is accredited by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing and is authorized to recommend candidates for credentials. The university offers a complete training program for both Single (Secondary) and Multiple (Elementary) Subject teaching credentials. Upon completion of a Stanford approved program, the credentials allow teachers to serve in California public schools.
