We’re pleased to offer coursework related to gifted education for K-12 teachers. These classes meet the requirements for the Virginia Department of Education add-on teaching endorsement in Gifted Education. They also prepare you to successfully differentiate your curriculum and teach gifted students to their highest potential.
If you’re seeking the gifted education endorsement, you can complete the required coursework in a year. You may start in any semester, although a summer start is recommended to complete EDUC 570U as the first class.
Once you’ve completed these courses, follow VDOE guidance on submitting the application. Review the section that starts with “Licensure Changes.” Our program manager can assist you in preparing your application, but you’ll be responsible for collecting the required documentation and submitting the licensure paperwork to the appropriate VDOE office.
