***COMPUTER COMPETENCY
Certification requires demonstration of computer competency to meet Kentucky Teacher Standard IX. All teacher
education students in B-K, P-5, 5-9, 8-12, or P-12 programs must demonstrate computer literacy prior to approval
for student teaching and may do so through one of the plans described below.
Plan 1: Pass approved computer literacy exam administered jointly by College of Education and Human
Services and College of Business and Public Affairs.
Plan 2: Successful completion, with grade of C or better, of CIT 105 (3 credit hours) or equivalent.
.Students must earn 42 hours at the 300 or above course level.
GRADE POINT AVERAGE REQUIREMENTS
Grade point averages are reviewed during three checkpoints: admission to teacher education (see Requirements for
Admission to Teacher Education), admission to student teaching (requires a 2.75 average overall; a 2.75 average in
content area; a 2.75 average in professional education) and at the time of completion/graduation (2.75 overall).
Continuous assessment procedures will be used to document and systematically monitor student progress through
the education program in order to determine the degree to which students have internalized and can demonstrate
proficiency with the IECE Teacher Standards. The eligibility portfolio will be assessed during the student teaching
semester. Check Points are designed to facilitate student progress through the education program, provide students
with information for completion of the portfolio at designated stages and serve as a means for making
recommendations for improvement or remediation when needed, to be reviewed at the next check point. Students
are required to pass IECE PRAXIS 0023 (paper-based) or 5023 (computer-based). Passing PRAXIS is required for
a student to be recommended for certification. Teacher certification requirements are subject to change. Before
registering for the test(s), please refer to the Education Professional Standards Board (EPSB) website at
www.epsb.ky.gov for current requirements or the Division of Professional Learning at 502-564-4606 or 888-5987667.
