Teacher Renewal Plan
- This plan is for teachers currently employed by a South Carolina public school district who are eligible to take continuing education hours courses for part of their recertification requirements. For detailed information or clarification of S.C. Teacher Recertification requirements, particularly if you are not currently employed by a South Carolina public school district, call the State Teacher Recertification Hotline at 877.885.5280 weekdays after 1 p.m.
- A portion of an eligible teacher’s education hour requirements may be taken via continuing education courses. These CE courses meet Options 6 and/or 10 requirements of the Teacher Renewal Plan.
- Prior to enrolling in a course, eligible teachers should get course approval from their principal or staff development official.
- Certificates of completion are provided for self-documentation of hours.
Course Format
These CE courses are available on the Main Campus and also via the Internet. Please visit Online Offerings for specific, related courses for teaching professionals. These courses will enhance your organizational, leadership, language and computer technology skills. The online courses are especially convenient – they offer an average of 24 contact hours toward the maximum 60 CE hours allowed. Most are instructor-led, self-paced and available on the Internet 24/7.
Teacher Graduate Credits NEW!
Teachers are now eligible for graduate credits for selected online courses, even if they are not currently employed by a public school district.
Education to Go has partnered with Madonna University, fully accredited by both the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools and the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education. Each online Education to Go class is 24 contact hours of training, and 15 contact hours are needed to earn one graduate credit. Therefore, one online course earns one academic credit. The nine remaining contact hours can be applied to a future course, if you choose to do so. Students may earn one graduate credit for every 15 online contact hours for completing the course and writing a paper describing how they might apply the knowledge on the job. These credits are non-degree graduate credits, which are designed to be used to satisfy the requirements of certificate renewal and salary increase.
Cost is $150 per semester hour plus the cost of the online course. Visit www.ed2go.com/trident or call 843.574.6683 for more information. |
