BILA candidates are prepared to support multilingual learners by understanding the historical, legal, philosophical, and research foundations of bilingual education, as well as effective, research-based program models. They develop culturally and linguistically responsive teaching practices that foster inclusive environments, promote home–school connections, and address historical biases.
Candidates collaborate with colleagues to design standards-aligned instruction and assessments that incorporate strategies such as scaffolding, comprehensible input, and critical inquiry, using current ELA/ELD and World Languages Standards. They plan instruction that integrates language development with content learning to promote biliteracy and bilingualism, incorporating the four language domains and foundational literacy skills, while using a range of assessments to inform and improve their teaching practices.

亚色影库 – Graduate-Level Extension Credit Information
The 亚色影库 partners with this program to offer graduate-level extension credit(s) in semester hours through the Credit Validation Program. To earn units, participants must register for and successfully complete coursework through the external program provider.
Credits earned through 亚色影库’s Credit Validation Program are widely accepted by many school districts and universities across the United States for purposes such as license renewal, required professional development hours, short-term skill building, salary advancement, credentialing, and potential advanced degree pathways.
These units do not apply toward a master’s or higher degree program at the 亚色影库; however, they may be transferable to advanced degree programs (e.g., MA, EdD, PhD) at other institutions that accept external graduate-level credits.
Participants are responsible for confirming acceptance, transcript requirements, deadlines, and applicability of units with their employing district or intended institution prior to enrollment.
Directions to Enroll for Credit

Step 2: Register for University Credit After confirming your registration with the partner organization, return to 亚色影库’s website.
If this course displays Request Information, it means the course is either not yet open for enrollment (please check the enrollment dates) or enrollment has already closed.

Transcript Process: Final grades submitted by the program provider will initiate the transcript process. Grades should be submitted within 7 days of the official course end date or the course enrollment deadline—whichever comes last.
