WISC Los Angeles campus
Our new Waldorf teacher education program spans over 3 summers and 2 school years with the option for a shorter journey towards getting certified as a waldorf teacher if you attend classes in both our LA and SD locations. We offer 5 intensive weeks during the summer and about 8-9 intensive week-ends during the school year. Our classes are online and in person, and they include curriculum, art, movement, music and philosophy.
The next official cohort starts in the summer of 2025, and we are offering a rich program this spring. The credits you accumulate during the spring, will count towards your full waldorf teacher certification.

Our purpose is to make Waldorf education available to as many children as possible, and to make it possible for all people who want to, to become Waldorf teachers. We serve all the Waldorf schools, independent, charters, and initiatives in our county. Among other places, our graduates teach at:
Independent Waldorf Schools
Waldorf School of Orange County
Waldorf School of Santa Barbara
Charter Schools
Mariposa School of Global Education
Waldorf Initiatives
Our two and three quarter years part-time Teacher Education Program spans from personal development to child development, incorporating practical activities in both the arts and sciences, teaching musical skills and movement, so that the new teacher can stand prepared before their class.

Our student community is diverse, allows for different and unique perspectives to arise for discussion and for developing new friendships.
We create life-long learners.
"A need for imagination, a sense for truth and a feeling for responsibility
these are the three forces that constitute the nerves of pedagogy."
