What are my Special Education cerfication options?
You will be certified to teach special education, all grades. To meet No Child Left Behind Requirements for highly qualified teachers, you will also be certified in another general education area, such as EC-4 Generalist, 4-8 Generalist, or another area. Most CASE students choose EC-4 Generalist or 4-8 Generalist for their general education certification; your coursework is designed to prepare you for the TExES exams in these areas. As a certified special education teacher, you will be highly qualified to teach elementary special education classes, secondary inclusion or support, or life skills.
