How do I become a High school (Architectural)Design Teacher do I need certification. Im graduating with a BS in Arch & Cons Science. I really feel strong about kids learning solutions to there design problems early and I think it would be a job that I can enjoy going to cause it would'nt feel like work...Anyone have a idea

1. You need certification, but in some states (like VA, where I taught) the technical subject teachers have different requirements for certification than teachers of academic subjects. To teach technical subjects, you didn't need as much formal education but you needed to have several years of experience working the field you were going to teach. Requirements differ between states. Check out your state's Dept of Ed website. Most of them list out very specific requirements for becoming a teacher there.
