Add a Teaching Endorsement
Interested in expanding the breadth of your teaching credentials and ability to serve your students in the classroom? Add a teaching specialist endorsement! Our endorsement programs are hands-on, meaning you not only gain the knowledge needed, but will walk into your own classroom with the confidence to know how to serve your students well.
Choose from Three Endorsements:
All three of our endorsements are 100% online.
Format
You may earn an endorsement as:
- An endorsement-only candidate to add as an endorsement to your existing teaching license (admission requirements)
- As part of our Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program (known as MAT Plus)
- A specialization within the Master of Education (MEd) program
Endorsements can be completed in 10-16 months, depending upon the number of courses you take.
Both the endorsement programs and MEd program allow you to design your own timeline and take credits at your own pace. This allows you to maximize district professional development funds, when available.
If you are a current teacher, the ESOL or Reading practicum can often be completed in your own classroom or school. This requires an endorsed and qualified cooperating teacher (CT), cooperation with the administration, and an opportunity to work with the designated specialists in the building to serve students.
