Programs to Obtain NYS Certification in Teaching Literacy (Reading)
The New York State Education Department has determined that certification in Teaching Literacy (at either birth-grade 6 or grades 5-12) can be pursued only by teachers who already have NYS Initial Certification in an other area of specialization.
Therefore, if you are a prospective teacher interested in Teaching Literacy, you need to select another specialty as your primary area while also planning to pursue certification in Teaching Literacy as a non-degree Advanced Certificate program – either after you complete your entry-level teacher preparation program, or concurrently with it.
