Since its inception in 1963, the Teacher Education Council (TEC) at Purdue University has brought together representatives from the colleges, departments and programs that participate in the undergraduate and graduate instruction of students preparing to meet licensure requirements by establishing academic standards.
The council is made up of members of the teaching faculty and administrative professional staff in academic units preparing professional educators on the West Lafayette, Northwest, and Fort Wayne campuses. The dean of the College of Education chairs the TEC and is its chief executive officer.
