Certification
These programs only prepare students to be certified educators in Texas. If you are an out-of-state individual seeking certification in Texas, you must present your credentials to the Texas Education Agency (TEA) for review.
If you are an out-of-state individual seeking certification in another state, you must consult with that state’s education authorities to achieve certification.
Students seeking Texas certification must satisfy a criminal background check and other legal requirements before clinical teaching and employment in a Texas school.
