What is PACT?

PACT (Performance Assessment for California Teachers) is a consortium of teacher preparation programs at a number of California Universities.  These institutions have joined together to develop a teacher performance assessment.  Successful completion of the teaching performance assessment will be required to earn a California Preliminary Multiple Subject or Single Subject Teaching Credential.
