Stage Progression
Seton Montessori Institute’s Credential programs are organized into six successive phases:
Phase I: Submit a complete application. The academic director will contact the applicant for an in-depth personal interview.
Phase II: A small-group orientation that introduces preparatory assignment work
Phase III: Beginning academics offered twice annually in a weekend format in the Spring and a weekday format during the Summer
Phase IV: A minimum nine-month supervised practicum/internship (eligible to begin once beginning academics are complete)
Phase V: A sequence of continuing academic seminars that give support during what is typically the practicum /internship year
Phase VI: A postgraduate seminar that encourages students to begin the habit of participating in regular continuing education.
