Visual Art Certification Talk April 18, 2013 11 a.m. 229 Art & Design

COTE introduction Oversee all things related to licensing Past – Things like CBC, Bloodborne Pathogen training, etc. Here today to talk about process of actually getting certified. Obtain license as soon as you can!!!!-Regardless of other plans (grad school, Peace Corp, etc). Only protected against program changes for 1 year Not protected at all against ISBE changes (Ex: C or better) Other state certification will likely hinge on Illinois certification first

Applying for certification: Log onto your student portal (www.cote.illinois.edu) Example: ed-blutarsky (Bluto) Click on “Certification Application” Will ask if your are registered for or previously done student teaching. If you must answer no, do not proceed. If yes, continue. Click on “Click here to fill out your application request.”

Email address-Recommend you use your most reliable-regular email account. (UIUC’s account will go away) Phone number Degree period (or licensing period) Major License (Should pull in as Visual Arts-K-12) Endorsements Comments: Provide important information regarding endorsements such as pending transfer coursework, tests, etc.

May choose as many as you wish to be considered for (but please have mercy as each audit takes time) You will all be endorsed in Visual Arts (K-12). To teach any other subject besides Art at the middle grade, you must complete the middle grade coursework and meet the content requirements for the endorsement. Signature (must “sign” stating you understand) (check mark to the side) Must click “submit” Once you submit you can’t go back. Contact us if you need to revise or add something.

The next day, you should receive an email which says the COTE has received your application. Can submit application even if you haven’t yet passed all tests (just need to be registered for student teaching). I will complete an audit based on DARS report or graduate audit we completed earlier. Problems? Will either contact you or records officer. If contacted, it’s important you respond.

End of final semester processing. Nothing missing? Will put application in pending file until end of Fall term Endorsements? Will send Endorsement email to address you put on form. Contact us if something is inaccurate or missing. End of final semester processing. EFE hours (at least 80). (Should check Student portal for accuracy) Student Teaching Time Report Be accurate and fairly descriptive. Only record we will have of your Student teaching (directions on student portal).

Recommending you to ISBE: Safety Training Mandated reporter training acknowledgement Approved portfolio Departmental Recommendation Should come automatically from Robin if you meet all responsibilities Tests Visual Arts Assessment of Professional Teaching Grades Degree (must appear on transcripts!!!) Recommending you to ISBE: We will contact you at email address you provided.

Will provide a link to the Educator Licensure System (ELS) (www. isbe Will provide a link to the Educator Licensure System (ELS) (www.isbe.net/els) Click on provided link. If you haven’t already done so, create a “Private Educator Licensure Account” Click on “You have an entitlement license waiting for your application.” Click on “Apply online” Follow steps. Be prepared to pay by credit card Be sure to register your certificate with a district.

TESTING (more information) Paper copy of license will arrive in mail Any school district with your name and SSN can verify certification TESTING (more information) Two tests: Visual Arts (145)-Must take/pass before student teaching (state law). Assessment of Professional Teaching (K-12) (104) (or non- grade specific version) If you plan to be endorsed in a foreign language and wish to be considered “highly qualified” (NCLB), unless you are double majoring or have 32 hours, plan to take the corresponding Foreign Language Content test.

Testing (Continued) Be sure you send test scores to Illinois Be sure your SSN is accurate (errors may delay license). Can check your tests on your Student portal. Keep test scores forever (or longer)- May need them later

Odds and Ends Unlike those before you, you will be issued a “Professional Educator License” endorsed in Visual Arts. The APT will become available as a non-grade specific test. You can take either version (K-12 or non-grade specific version). the former will remain “valid.” The non-grade specific version will be computer-based only

Certification in other states Renewing your license. Important! The window for renewing is getting smaller-don’t let your license lapse. Can renew online through ELS (same site you claim your certificate on). Certification in other states Likely will require licensure in Illinois first Other states may have program verification form. Send form to COTE to fill out. Contact information is on our website under “Links” in www.cote.illinois.edu Certification Map – Talks about reciprocity, etc US Teacher Certification Offices (If you ask us about certification in other states, this is where we’ll likely refer you).

“Highly Qualified” A Federal No Child Left Behind definition Will be “Highly Qualified” for art by virtue of your major and by passing the content test in Visual Arts To teach other subjects, it’s generally advisable to be both endorsed and “highly qualified.” Questions?
