Overview

Loyola Marymount University's PLACE Corps is built upon three pillars: Professional Development, Intentional Community, and Ignatian Spirituality.

PLACE Corps members earn a master's degree and teaching credential while serving as full-time teachers in primarily under-resourced Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Los Angeles.

Key Features

During their two-year commitment, program members live with one another in intentional community while exploring and strengthening shared values rooted in Catholicism, and providing inclusive experiences with a commitment to social justice.
PLACE Corps is a proud member of the Catholic Volunteer Network (CVN) and the University Consortium for Catholic Education (UCCE).
To date, more than 80% of program alumni have remained in education, serving thousands of school children.
PLACE Corps predominantly enrolls and accepts candidates into an elementary or secondary education teacher preparation program, in courses offered using a hybrid format (60% face-to-face and 40% online).
