Alternative Routes to Certification
About ARTC
Alternative Routes to Certification (ARTC) offers an alternative to the traditional route to teacher certification in Delaware, allowing qualified individuals to complete certification requirements while they are employed as full-time teachers. This state-approved program of professional education coursework is accompanied by intensive, school-based supervision and mentoring.
Certification Routes
Schools are currently challenged to find enough certified teachers in various “critical need” subjects, including teachers of English language learners, math, science, technology education, business, family and consumer sciences, world language, and special education.
As schools strive to provide a relevant and challenging education for all students, they increasingly rely on the specialized expertise of teachers who are trained to effectively support students with disabilities.
Within two years, you can develop the skills to organize library collections, design instructional strategies that promote student achievement and foster a love of reading and independent learning.
Through this program, qualified undergraduate English and English Education majors can earn a B.A in English/English Education and an MA in Teaching English Language Learner in 5 years.
