Please note that this is not a certification program. The certificate program is a non-degree, fast-track program. Attending this program does not certify participants for teaching in public K-12 schools in the U.S. unless they are able to gain "temporary" or "emergency" certification. However, graduates from this program are eligible to teach in Independent K-12 School settings. Those who are interested in pursuing an MA degree may subsequently apply to the Bilingual Education Program or the TESOL Program (K-12 Certification Track) at 成人抖阴 if they wish to receive New York State certification or otherwise to the Applied Linguistics Program or the TESOL Program (General Track).

• Graduates from the 成人抖阴SOL (Teaching Chinese to Speakers of Other Languages) Certificate Program can transfer the equivalent of six credits into their subsequent study in the Master's program of Applied Linguistics or Bilingual Education at 成人抖阴, should they be subsequently accepted into either program. 
• Students concurrently enrolled in the 成人抖阴SOL Certificate Program and in 成人抖阴 TESOL, Applied Linguistics, or Bilingual/Bicultural Education master’s programs are also assured successful transfer of six credits. Students are required to complete the necessary steps outlined by their master’s program advisor in order to ensure the transfer of credits into their degree program.
• Students concurrently enrolled in the 成人抖阴SOL Certificate Program and in a 成人抖阴 master’s program not outlined above may be able to transfer up to six credits into their program by permission of their master’s program advisor.

The main difference between the 成人抖阴SOL Certificate Program in New York (成人抖阴SOL program) and the 成人抖阴SOL/TESOL Dual Certificate Summer Program (Summer Program) is that the 成人抖阴SOL program covers more comprehensive materials on 成人抖阴SOL on a much deeper level of instruction. Also, the 成人抖阴SOL program provides a Practicum as part of the program, whereas the Summer program does not. Many view the Summer program as a stepping stone for the 成人抖阴SOL program and transfer to it upon completion of the Summer program as the tuition of the Summer program can be used towards the tuition of the 成人抖阴SOL program.

Yes. Students can apply for one of two options for participating in the program: Either (1) in-person at 成人抖阴 in New York City, or (2) ASYNCHRONOUS online attendance. NOTE: It is NOT POSSIBLE to alternate between taking classes in person and online once a choice of modality has been made at the start of the program.
