Bethel provides an opportunity for students who complete a special education license to add a general education teaching license. Students who complete their edTPA during their special education student teaching will not be required to also complete an edTPA in order to earn a general education add-on teaching license. The entire course sequence for the special education license must be completed for eligibility for an add-on teaching license, or students must hold a current special education teaching license. Students must earn a passing score on all required Minnesota Teaching Licensure Examinations (MTLE) or equivalent examinations. Students must complete all content coursework, as determined through an evaluation of transcripts, prior to student teaching. The required curriculum for a teaching license as an addition to a qualifying Minnesota special education teaching licenses comprises a 10-11 semester credit sequence of courses.
