In our program we have to have a degree in applied linguisitcs or ESOL and we have to get at least 12 hours of PD per year (24 the first year) in addition to preservice hours.

Subject: [EnglishLanguage 4001] Credentialing for adult ESOL teachers
To: englishlanguage at nifl.gov

HI listers-- I am working with a group at my school to improve an in-house credentialing requirement the school has for teachers.  We are wondering what other schools. programs, states do about credentialing adult ESOL teachers.   Do any of you have requirements for CEU's?  If so, are there specifications for those?  Do you or does anyone you know hire only teachers with some kind of credential or qualification that can be obtained externally?  Once hired, do teachers have to continue their PD to stay hired or get a raise?   

I'd be really grateful for information and feedback on this issue.
