Graduate Credit

Turn Your #TEACH Coursework Into Graduate Credit

Teaching is more than earning a certification — it’s mastering a craft, building a professional identity, and committing to growth that lasts. Through #TEACH, your work doesn’t stop at licensure.

Eligible #TEACH candidates can apply earned program credits toward graduate‑level credit through our university partnership with Ashland University, allowing you to continue your development while maximizing the work you’ve already completed.

This pathway recognizes the depth, rigor, and practice‑intensive design of the #TEACH program. Your coursework reflects university‑level expectations and can serve as a meaningful step toward advanced study.

Whether you’re strengthening your instructional practice, preparing for leadership opportunities, or investing in your long‑term career as an educator, this option allows you to build forward, not start over.

Explore how your #TEACH credits can help you take the next step in your professional journey.
