I have my initial certification in NYS, and I am starting to look at graduate programs to complete my Prof. cert. I would really like to do an online program, specifically a M. Ed in curriculum and instruction - children's literature through Penn State online. Does anyone know if this program meets will meet the requirements considering it is distance learning through another state? It is an accredited program, but I don't know if I have to get my masters in NYS to get my Prof. cert.

I would prefer answers from NYS teachers. Thank you!

  2. Sure, just check the school accreditation. Strayer University and University of Phoenix are acceptable I am just not sure if they offer the college courses you need. I suggest you contact the School Board and ask them which schools they accept for the certification you need.

  3. I know many teachers that go to on-line college to get their masters.  The most important question to ask is:  what school accreditation is required by the state, and does the school your looking into belong to this accreditation.

    For example my school is part of this accredition:   www.ncahlc.org

    Hope this helps.
