Anyone seeking a certificate is required to take the Assessment of Professional Teaching (APT) exam. This is a state required assessment. There are four different examinations. You are required to take the exam that matches your certificate: early childhood, elementary, secondary, or K-12. This assessment covers the Illinois Professional Teaching Standards which include special education standards for the regular classroom teacher, Language Arts Standards for all teachers, and Technology Standards for all teachers.
