The Certificate is targeted to both professionals who are interested in teaching, giving them the opportunity to learn what is required to become a math teacher, and to current teachers who wish to deepen their content knowledge. With existing teacher testing and professional development requirements, the certificate provides for further study without long-term commitment.
Note: This program will not provide teacher licensure in mathematics. The program's focus is on the content knowledge that is a prerequisite for mathematics teaching.
