Note: Completers can be counted in more than one subject area. (Example: A candidate prepared in Elementary Education & Special Education will be counted as a completer in both programs, but only counted once for the teacher category or other categories. Candidate will either be a “teacher” for Elementary Education OR Special Education and not a teacher for both categories. Teacher category is determined by the position/area in which the candidates are hired to teach.)
