ΘΛΚήΠΤ½» to offer Intensive Reading Endorsement Program
ΘΛΚήΠΤ½» University

Educators who wish to add a reading endorsement to their credentials can enroll in a new program at ΘΛΚήΠΤ½» University. Courses begin in early January 2013 in both Zanesville and New Philadelphia.  Enrollees can complete the program by early June 2013, in time for the start of the 2013-2014 school year.

"We are pleased and excited to offer this endorsement which was created in response to Ohio’s Third-Grade Reading Guarantee,” said Nancy Bradley, coordinator of this program at ΘΛΚήΠΤ½» University.

The program will be offered in one after-school face-to-face meeting each week, plus three Saturday meetings. β€œWe hope that the format allows flexibility and accessibility for educators who are currently in the field,” added Bradley. The 12-hour program includes classes in teaching reading Pre-K through 12, advanced literacy assessment, and becoming a leader for literacy.

Completion of coursework in this program will count toward earning a master’s degree at ΘΛΚήΠΤ½» University, explained Bradley. Enrollment in this program is limited and the application fee will be waived for those enrolling by December 19, 2012.

ΘΛΚήΠΤ½» University offers this innovative program in addition to several intensive endorsement programs – early childhood generalist, middle childhood generalist, and highly qualified teacher – available throughout the year.
