Teaching Children with Learning Disabilities

Special Education High Incidence - Endorsement (SEHI-Endorsement)

Designed for experienced credentialed teachers who wish to obtain teaching skills for addressing the educational problems of elementary age students with high incidence disabilities such as Learning Disabilities. This is the appropriate sequence for teachers who wish to obtain a master's degree and be endorsed in special education. Currently the special education endorsement is only offered in connection with a masters degree.  There is no endorsement-only program.

Students will meet these program goals:

  • Effective assessment, teaching, and evaluation of children with disabilities.
  • Meeting the needs of diverse learners and their families.
  • Creating a positive learning environment for children with disabilities and their peers.
  • Understanding the historical, legal, ethical, medical, psychological, and sociological foundations of special education.
  • Demonstrating professional commitment and advocacy skills
