Preliminary Administrative Services Credential
and Internship Credential (PASC), Tier I

The Preliminary Administrative Services Credential Internship Program meets a unique need within school districts by allowing candidates with master's degrees whose districts desire to employ them immediately as administrators to complete their credential coursework while simultaneously filling the administrative position. Candidates do so under supervision of the university and the nominating district and must enroll in the field experience courses during the first two semesters of the program.

Most students combine the Preliminary Administrative Services Credential (Tier I) with the Master of Arts in Education: School Administration, in a combined program also offered at APU.
