• To begin the add-on, complete the Declaration of Intent to Pursue Additional Teaching Endorsements.
  Any substitution requests in add-on programs must be routed through the certification officer. Contact Clemmer College main office for Substitution Request forms.
• Teacher education students who are pursuing initial teaching license and wish to add credits toward an add-on endorsement may do so. Please be advised: An add-on program does not necessarily meet the requirements of a minor and substitutions or approvals made for teaching add-ons do not take the place of catalog requirements or departmental advisement for degree purposes.
• Courses counted toward an add-on must have a minimum grade of "C-" or equivalent unless otherwise stated in this program sheet.
• Add-ons will not be verified unless all requirements for initial Tennessee teaching license are met.
  Praxis II Subject Area tests are required for add-ons. Request current Praxis II information for Tennessee in Room 321 Warf-Pickel Bldg. When registering for the tests, be sure to designate East Tennessee State University, Recipient Code 1198, to receive a copy of your score report. Examinee's copies are not accepted by the Office of Teacher Licensing for official verification.
• The Application for Tennessee Teaching License or Amendment to Licensure is available in Room 321 Warf-Pickel. The candidate will complete Part I of the form, attach up to date transcripts showing all completed coursework relevant to the add-on and return to Clemmer College main office for processing.
