The Hope College Education Department has once again been designated "exemplary" by the State of Michigan. This is the third consecutive year that the Michigan Department of Education has rated college and university teacher preparation programs. Hope's program has earned an exemplary rating each year. The ratings are based on such factors as student performance on the Michigan Test for Teacher Competency, student teacher exit surveys, surveys of supervising teachers, program completion rates, program review status, diversity of the teacher education student body, and the presence of high need subject matter in the curriculum. Hope's program earned 68 out of 70 possible points on the state rating system - an increase of three points over last year.
