The University of Oregon is committed to actively collaborating with our field placement community partners to enhance the educator preparation experience of our licensure candidates and support the practicing professionals of our various training sites.

Field experience is critical component to educational preparation, it connects future educators with caring and dedicated professionals who mentor them while working to meet the social, emotional, and learning needs of today’s students. It exposes them to vibrant learning communities, and gives them hands on practice in their field. We value the generosity, advocacy, and professional expertise of Cooperating Professionals as part of our instructional team.

The Assessment, Licensure, and Field Services office within the College of Education, serves as the University of Oregon’s Educational Preparation Program (EPP) unit, actively supporting licensure programs, candidates, and our community partnerships.
