Online Middle Grades Endorsement
Earn Your Middle Grades Endorsement Entirely Online in as Few as 8 Weeks!
In the state of Illinois, educators earn an Elementary, Secondary, or Special certificate for teaching at the elementary or secondary school level. To teach in a departmentalized middle grade setting (grades 5-8), educators also need a “middle grades endorsement” on their teaching certificate. The University of Illinois offers three online courses that meet the six credit-hour State Board course requirements for the middle grades endorsement: EPSY 430, EPS 427 and CI 410 (see the General Requirements page for full ISBE rules).
