There are two types of TESL certificates: the TESL Coursework Certificate and the TESL Certificate with Practicum.
To receive the 12-credit TESL Coursework Certificate from the Department of Language and Literacy Education, a student must complete LLED 489 (6 credits) and LLED 478 (6 credits). Note that courses other than LLED 489 that may count as prerequisites for LLED 478 cannot count as credit towards the certificate.
To receive the 15-credit TESL Certificate with Practicum, a student must complete LLED 489 (6 credits), LLED 478A (3 credits), LLED 478B (3 credits) and LLED 399 (3 credits).
