Clinical experiences and student teaching for the Roosevelt Professional Development School (PDS) program occur entirely at the Roosevelt Elementary School District. The Roosevelt PDS program is a full-time, 24-month, evening program that requires summer field experience.

Prospective students prepared to become exceptional new teachers through the Roosevelt Professional Development School (PDS) receive unrivaled education and guidance throughout the program. Mentor teachers and CTEL faculty provide teacher education students in-depth feedback and guidance on their development as effective classroom teachers.

Current research shows teachers prepared through the PDS program are more confident, prepared, and ultimately better able to deliver student achievement results from their first year of teaching and beyond. The Madison PDS program emphasizes practical classroom applications based on the latest theory, research, and best practices.

Students who graduate from the Roosevelt PDS program and have a contract through the Roosevelt District are eligible to receive a monetary bonus of $2000 per year for up to 4 years.
