Professional Licensure and Certification Information

In New York State, each teacher certificate has requirements that candidates must meet in order to be licensed or certified to practice in New York. All undergraduate and graduate programs at Manhattanville leading to licensure or certification have been approved by NYS Education Department as meeting the New York State education requirements for licensure or certification. Licensure and certification may require additional and/or prior coursework, NY State examinations, and/or mandated workshops.

 

For a list of programs that meet the educational requirements for teacher certification or professional licensure in New York State, see URL. Candidates should be aware that NYSED regulations change frequently and that it is the ultimate responsibility of the candidate to be familiar with and to fulfill all of the requirements for licensure or certification. The information the college provides is accurate as of the date of publication. Efforts are made to communicate changes to licensure or certification requirements via Manhattanville email, but it is the responsibility of candidates to remain up-to-date and to meet current requirements. Licensing and certification are at the sole determination of NYSED.
