In 12 credits of curriculum, earn the coursework necessary to meet the requirements for an Autism Endorsement in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. You will engage in coursework that includes ongoing targeted special education field experiences while also developing a broad understanding of characteristics of autism, etiology, evidence-based interventions, assessment, behavioral interventions, social skills interventions and family and community-related issues.
Note: If you intend to apply to the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) for the endorsement, a Level I or Level II Certificate from PDE is a prerequisite. If you do not hold an instructional certificate from PDE, you may apply for the program and complete the required courses without the PDE endorsement.
