The various programs of the faculty of Education at the USAL were developed in order to prepare and qualify the undergraduates throughout their journey, as well as graduates who wish to join the teaching profession according to the distinct quality standards of the labor market demands.

Our objectives, competencies, and program outcomes were based on basic educational knowledge and trends, in addition to the skills and international standards required by the teacher for his/her profession.

The department aims at helping the teachers gain field experience directly from the most important Lebanese schools where the students get the chance to be trained at these schools, as a program requirement, under the supervision of academic experts.
