In-Field Endorsement in Gifted Education

Candidates in graduate teacher education programs at Piedmont College may, with the help of their faculty advisor, elect to take a sequence of three foundational courses, making them eligible to add the Gifted In-Field Endorsement to their Georgia teaching certificate. Additionally, individuals seeking the endorsement may apply to the Office of Graduate Admissions to register for the Gifted In-Field Endorsement courses as a non-degree student. Each of the three courses is offered during the fall, spring, and summer. Courses are designed to be taken in the order listed below. For more information, contact Dr. Isabelle Crowder, Coordinator of Gifted Education.
