For secondary
certified
teachers. This
program must
meet all
elementary
certification
requirements.
Notes:
 V-codes (e.g., VA, VB, etc.) are not included in this chart, as V-codes alone do not authorize an individual to teach in a
Career and Technical Education setting. V-codes indicate possession of a separate occupational certificate with a
Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) code.
 N/A indicates that the specific option is not available according to the standards for this endorsement area.
