Post-Certification Endorsement & Non-Degree Programs in Education

Endorsements

Saginaw Valley State University offers a number of endorsement programs for teachers who would like to add a new subject area to their current teaching certificate as well as complete coursework requirements for advancement of their teaching credentials.

Coursework requirements for many of the endorsement programs listed below are combined with the associated Master of Arts in Teaching degree program. Students interested in pursuing any of these endorsements would be required to apply under the corresponding master's degree program. Once the coursework and testing requirements have been completed for the endorsement, the student would have the option to continue on and complete the master's degree or select a new program of study.

Elementary Level Endorsements

Secondary Level Endorsements

Non-Degree Programs

Saginaw Valley State University offers a number of options for teachers who do not plan to pursue an endorsement or a master's or education specialist degree in education but would like to take classes for their own personal enrichment, to earn credits to advance their teaching certificate, or for professional development purposes.

Certification advisors are available to discuss your endorsement and non-degree options. Students who plan to enroll in courses on the main campus can schedule an appointment with a certification advisor by calling 989-964-4057 (option #3). Oakland and Macomb students can schedule an appointment by calling 586-749-0067.
