证书及背书
When you have successfully completed the requirements of 西雅图 Pacific’s Residency Teacher Certification Program and the requirements for a bachelor’s degree in your chosen major, the 教育学院 will recommend you to the state of Washington for Residency Teacher Certification. Although SPU makes recommendations to the state, the Washington state Department of Education issues the certification, 而不是SPU教育学院.
实习教师证书
的 实习教师证书 is your initial certification, and it is your license to teach in the state of Washington. This certificate will specify the endorsement area in which you may teach (e.g., Elementary Education, Physics, etc.). Every certificate must have at least one endorsement.
If you have questions about adding endorsements after teaching in your initial endorsement area, contact the endorsement coordinator in SPU’s 职业教育中心 in the 教育学院.
教师证书 in Other States
Most states issue certificates to people who have completed a teacher education program that was approved by the appropriate state certification agency where the college or university is located. Since the Washington state Professional Educator Standards Board has approved SPU’s 实习教师证书 Program, students completing the program are usually eligible for certification in other states.
To apply for certification in another state, email the office of certification in that state and ask for an application. Wait to apply until all requirements for your degree and the Washington certificate have been completed.
证书文件
以前, placement files — a collection of professional documents used by school districts when hiring teachers, 辅导员, and administrators — were required for any person applying to certified jobs within school districts in Washington state. As technology has changed most districts have shifted to completely electronic applications which require applicants to maintain their own documents, and fewer districts request and accept credential files.
的 教育学院 recommends that teachers maintain their documents (e.g. current resume, transcripts, letters of recommendation, test reports, etc.) personally or pay for an online managing service. Information on self-managing credentials.
