Certification-only Art Education

Individuals who hold a degree but do not wish to pursue a master’s degree may elect to pursue a sequence of studies that will enable them to be eligible for recommendation for teacher certification.

Individuals who have a degree and background in art may wish to pursue course work and the requisite clinical experiences in order to be eligible for state certification as an art educator.
