Spanish Bilingual Authorization: Learn more here!
The Bilingual Authorization (BA) Program at UC Berkeley follows from explicit pieces of our Identity Statement for teaching toward a more socially-just world. We aim to prepare powerful, equity-oriented teachers who will be well-equipped to build bilingualism and biliteracy in Spanish and English for learners across the socio-economic, racial, ethnic, and cultural backgrounds represented in the San Francisco Bay Area.
