What Should I Know Before I Look Through These Schools?

There are a couple of terms that are worth defining as you research programs: "in-service" means programs for current teachers (or people who have gone through an undergraduate teacher education program), and "pre-licensure" means programs for people who want to become teachers.

Also, as a rule, you should contact multiple schools if you are seriously considering going back for a degree or certificate in education. There can sometimes be very significant differences in tuition, admissions requirements, and so on, even between schools that you might think are very similar. So, it’s always a good idea to contact a number of schools and do a little comparison shopping.
