1991-1992 Academic Catalog

Even though reciprocal certification contracts exist with the states listed, additional requirements may need to be met in order to obtain permanent certification. Also, state certification requirements often change from year to year. Therefore, students who wish to teach outside of Ohio should ob– tain a current description of certification requirements from the "Depart– ment ofEducation" in each state they plan to teach. Christian Schools Graduates qualify for certification by the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI). This certification is recognized by Christian schools around the world.
