Our program will broaden your expertise and understanding in specialized education fields.
We provide courses for obtaining either a first or supplementary endorsement in autism spectrum disorder, cognitive impairment, or specific learning disability.
Multiple options are available for achieving special education certification and endorsements within Michigan.
Certified teachers looking to add or begin special education endorsements can pursue qualifications in autism spectrum disorder, cognitive impairment, or specific learning disability through our programs.
For those pursuing initial certification, we have an accelerated option allowing bachelor's degree holders to obtain a standard teaching certificate with a cognitive impairment endorsement. This prepares graduates to teach K-12 students with disabilities across Michigan.
Bachelor's degree seekers can take advantage of our fast-track program combining degree completion with certification, resulting in a standard teaching certificate featuring a cognitive impairment endorsement. Graduates will be qualified to teach K-12 students with disabilities throughout Michigan.
