Principal Leadership graduate programs require specific computer technology. Graduate students can use a personal device that meets these requirements or fully access the campus computer labs.

Technology requirements for personal devices:

  All students can download the Microsoft Office Suite and anti-viral software for free.
• An internet connection with the most current browser release 
• Adobe Acrobat Reader
• Web-conferencing & media recording capabilities

Search for “Canvas” on theFort. Once you log-in, you will have access to complete several technology modules which will help you be successful in the online learning format. You can complete these modules at your own pace and it should only take a couple hours in total.

Once you have confirmed your enrollment, you will receive a “permission to register” email that provides class CRN (Course Registration Number), Course Number, and Course Title.

This step is required for Principal Leadership, Special Education, and Teacher Licensure programs only.

To be eligible for student teaching placement, candidates must be fingerprinted by the Colorado Department of Education (CDE) as a Field Experience Educator. The Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) will process a criminal history check and route it to CDE. The CDE will make this information available to Fort Lewis College as your Educator Prep Program and the school district or charter school you will be placed for your field-based learning. 

View the fingerprinting & background check instructions.

Direct all questions about this process to the School of Education Administrative Assistant, EBH 249 or 970-247-7291.

If you are an employed teacher outside of Colorado, you must complete a background check and submit your fingerprints to the Colorado Department of Education.
