The Office of School-University Partnerships and Clinical Experiences (SUPCE) works to facilitate positive collaborative relationships between USC's educator preparation programs and over one hundred forty P-12 schools in Columbia and surrounding communities.
The office places practicum and internship candidates in Partnership Sites interested in mentoring future educators and also orchestrates professional development and research projects with a limited number of Professional Development Schools. In addition, SUPCE serves as the link between the university and local Teacher Cadet programs designed to introduce high school students to the teaching profession.
