Program Overview

Learn how to teach students with moderate disabilities in pre-K through grade 12.

UMass Boston's Special Education Certificate is designed for teachers seeking a secondary license, as well as those seeking initial licensure to work with special populations. The Certificate offer students a 27-credit sequence of coursework, including 75 hours of monitored pre-practicum field-based experience, and a minimum semester-long supervised practicum (including hours in an inclusive setting). For teachers who currently hold an initial licensure in early childhood, elementary education, and middle/secondary education, a portion of their practicum hours will be waived.

  • International applicants must submit evidence that they have completed the equivalent of a regionally accredited, U.S. university-level bachelor’s degree program. Acceptable documents can include official copies of diplomas, certified final degree certificates, and notation on final transcript of degree and date awarded. Most international four-year degrees are recognized as being equivalent. Most international three-year degrees, including the Indian Bachelor of Arts, Sciences and Commerce degrees, are not considered to be equivalent.
