Earn your advanced-certificate degree online

You will earn the same diploma as our on-campus students

The Post-baccalaureate Advanced Certificate and the Post-masters Certificate of Advanced Study (CAS) in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) are fully online programs that prepare teachers who hold a valid Initial, Professional or Permanent New York State classroom teaching certificate in another area to gain an Initial or Initial/Professional certificate in TESOL. The programs are grounded in evidence-based practices in the areas of language acquisition and instruction and are situated within a social justice framework that aims to assist limited English proficient students in gaining the necessary skills to increase their prospects of academic success in English-dominant school settings.
