Traditional Educational Technology Endorsement
Courses are available to all educators, not only to those enrolled in the endorsement. ANY teacher can take any course at any time it is being offered. Courses are ideal for networking, content knowledge, graduate credit, and/or relicensure hours! Click here to see the courses currently being offered by CUES. In addition, go to uen.catalog.instructure.com for a listing of all available UEN courses being offered. Please note that the CUES-taught courses will not be listed on the UEN site, but are private listings and will need to be registered via the corresponding links below.
The Traditional Technology Endorsement consists of 18 credit hours of coursework and will take at minimum one year to complete. Most participants complete the program in about two years. Courses can be taken in any order but must be completed within three years. The UEN-approved endorsement will only accept UEN courses listed below. UEN will not evaluate or approve courses from other organizations or districts. Each UEN course counts as 1 credit hour while the SUU courses are 3 credit hours. The UEN online courses are 6 weeks long and consist of weekly readings, videos, assignments, projects, and/or discussion posts to complete. On the other hand, the updated SUU courses are 7 weeks in length. An in-person course is two days (15 hours) long, whereas a Flex course is 1 day in person, then 4 weeks online to complete any projects or assignments. MOOC (Massive Open Online Courses) are open enrollment, limited instructor interaction, no due dates. You have until July 31 of each year to complete the MOOC course, but you can complete it as quickly as possible.
