A student completing Cedarville's elementary education program, the courses taught by Shepherd's personnel at Cedarville, and the remaining courses at Wright State University may graduate from Cedarville with State of Ohio certification in both elementary and special education. Complete details including course requirements for the program are available in the Education Department Office. Because of the additional coursework involved, this program extends the student's undergraduate college experience beyond the traditional four-year framework. Students who are not Ohio residents pay out-of-state fees at Wright State University. The courses offered on-campus at Cedarville are taught every even year, winter quarter only. Special Education without Certification For those preparing for ministries in churches or Christian schools, Shepherds and Cedarville College have joined to offer a specialization in special education. Courses taught by Shepherds' personnel are available every even year at Cedarville and during the summer at Shepherds. Though this program does not qualify for certification from the State of Ohio, it develops competence in special education for the student who anticipates a ministry in this area. Additional information about this program is available in the Education Department Office.
