Learning Pathways/Certificates for Focused Learning
What is a Learning Pathway/Certificate?
Overview
Choose from a variety of learning pathways/certificates—and amplify your continuing education.
A focused group of courses can make a lasting impact on teaching and learning, and open doors related to teaching assignments, leadership roles, and salary advancement.
Earn graduate credit from select university partners, and use up to 9 credits in multiple ways by advancing your career and your salary, meet license renewal requirements, or apply them towards an ACE Master’s or Doctoral Degree.
Learning pathways/certificates/graduate credits are intended to fulfill requirements for license renewal/lane change when the student has obtained proper prior approval. The learning pathways/certificates are not intended for license endorsements or any change in licensure status beyond renewal.
Completed courses will be noted on an official academic transcript and you will receive a Certificate of Completion from Teaching Channel.
