For candidates with a Standard Instructional Certificate
If you are currently a general education teacher or a special education teacher, you are teaching students with special needs. This program gives you the tools, strategies, and concepts to integrate computer technologies and assistive technologies throughout the special education curriculum. Modern technologies are the key to motivation, engagement and retention.
Completion of required coursework and pre-requisites (e.g., holding a standard instructional certificate) provide students the opportunity for nomination to the NJ Department of Education for the Teacher of Students with Disabilities endorsement, as well as receipt of Seton Hall's graduate certificate in Information Technologies. The Seton Hall graduate certificate is not linked to State certification, but rather intended for a student's resume/CV.
Admissions Requirements
To be considered for admission, applicants are required to submit the following materials:
- Online application and application fee
- Official transcript(s) from all institutions attended
- Letters of recommendation (2) from academic and/or professional references
- Personal statement
- Resume/Curriculum vitae
Note: This program requires students to hold a current Instructional Certificate. Interested students without an Instructional Certificate are encouraged to pursue the College's Certificates of Eligibility with Advanced Standing options (Elementary or Secondary), or the M.A.E. in Elementary Teaching program.
Application Deadline
The program reviews applications on a rolling basis and typically accepts applicants throughout the year.
