The Gifted Endorsement consists of 5 60-hour courses and is designed to increase the level of knowledge, expertise, and understanding of educators working with students who are gifted. The endorsement is intended to raise the awareness of the unique characteristics, emotional/social needs, and other challenges and issues associated with the students who are gifted. It is designed to foster an understanding of historical, state, and national trends, policies, and guidelines to ensure implementation of appropriate academic curriculum, differentiation strategies, educational intervention, and support for this diverse population.
These gifted endorsement courses can be taken in any order. For more information and to register for a Gifted Endorsement course, click here.
