Teacher Endorsement and Additional Certifications

Gaining recognition for teaching skills and specializations.

Additional professional teaching endorsements signify that a teacher is skilled in a particular subject matter or instructional strategy. Individuals who possess a valid West Virginia Professional Teaching Certificate can take the required Praxis content exam(s) to add endorsements to their certificate. 

Endorsements are not available to individuals who possess a provisional teaching certificate, student support certificate, administrative certificate or permits of any kind.
