Finish what you started

If you participated in the Educator Preparation Program (EPP) here at Texas State University in the past but did not finish, first, let us say we are thrilled you are ready to finish your certification!

Second, the standards for certification change frequently, so your courses, field experience, exam scores, and, yes, even your student teaching experience can expire--generally two years after your last semester of attendance or when state requirements change, whichever comes first.

To find out what you need to complete your certification, please send a request to the Office of Educator Preparation.
