Courses Required for Credentialing
When an initial credential is issued coursework is assigned to be completed within three years. The following matrix provides a list of potential courses that might be assigned and locations where those courses could be completed. Specific schedule questions should be directed to the institution(s) listed. If the option of credit or no-credit is available districts or colleges should document the course experience with a certificate that designates the district/college, instructor name, title of the course (it must be approved on this list to count toward credential renewal), date course was completed, and the signature of a person authorized to sign certificates for the district or college.
