In addition to passing the Comprehensive Examination, candidates seeking teacher certification must pass or be exempt from all relevant examinations required for certification by the state of Georgia. The opportunity to participate in Field Experience and Clinical Practice and therefore to finish the program depends on the candidate’s ability to satisfy criminal background check requirements. Because programs in the Department of Curriculum must be responsive to state certification requirements, students should contact the department to receive a copy of the most recent approved program.
