Course Information and Requirements
EEND 605 may be required if not previously completed during undergraduate or other graduate degree programs. Candidates may visit their local ROE or request assistance from the college/university where they believe the course was completed to determine if the course is still needed. USF is not able to determine if courses taken outside of the university meet ISBE requirements.
Courses offered at USF do not meet requirements for the Early Childhood Special Education approval.
Educators are encouraged to visit ISBE to view current requirements for adding the LBS I (valid for grade range held) endorsement to a valid PEL.
Educators interested in adding the LBS I (K–21) full endorsement to their educator license can visit our M.S. Teaching & Learning program page for more information.
