The Two Year Alternative Licensure Program (2YALP)
is operated by the Pikes Peak Board of Cooperative Educational Services (PPBOCES) and the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, Online and Academic Outreach. This alternative licensure program allows one to earn a salary while teaching in the classroom while attending classes to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to complete the program and concurrently earn a Colorado Initial Teacher License.
A laser focused pathway to licensure
"This program has enabled me to pursue a lifelong goal of being an elementary school teacher because they acknowledged prior academic achievements combined with my work experience and provide a laser focused pathway to licensure that is sustainable and achievable, all while working full time."
Josephine Montoya, 3rd Grade Teacher
