Computer Education Teaching License (EdTech) and Certificate in Computer Education
The Department of Educational Studies offers one teaching license and a graduate certificate related to educational technology. The Computer Education License is a 15 hour add-on license to any teaching license that can be added to any initial teaching license: elementary, secondary, or all-grade. See also the partner licensure programs that have been designed to complement the Computer Education License. The Marina Axeen Scholarship is available to students pursuing the license or minor in Educational Technology. The Graduate Certificate in Computer Education is for students who teach outside of the PreK-12 classroom.
