Certification

To add an endorsement to an existing certificate, complete the following steps:

• Contact the CEHS Center for Student Services (CSS) and ask that a transcript evaluation be processed, (transcripts will be needed to do this evaluation); if you attended CMU, the CSS can obtain the necessary transcripts.
• The student will be responsible for supplying the CSS with transcripts from other institution(s) attended, including undergraduate course work.
• A letter and the student transcripts will be sent by the CSS to the major/minor. 
• The student's transcripts will be evaluated by the major and/or minor department.
• A copy of the program will be sent to the student; the program the student receives is considered a signed major or minor and coursework must be completed from that program.
• To take coursework at CMU, register at Graduate Studies as a non-degree student.
• When coursework is completed and the subject area test is completed and passed, submit an application to MDE online to add an endorsement to your existing teaching certificate.​
