• An additional teaching license that signifies “highly qualified” teacher status for competency in adapted physical education for special education students in PK-12 schools. • Wisconsin is one of 14 states with a separate add-on teaching license in adapted physical education. School districts seek teachers with multiple licenses for qualified and flexible staffing. • Minnesota PE teachers can also pursue an APE add-on license. The WI APE add-on meets most of the MN requirements. We regularly have UW-L graduates hired in MN as APE teachers. • The Wisconsin 860 APE add-on teaching license is highly regarded throughout the country by other state education agencies and school districts.
