Summer Institute: Gifted Endorsement

Empower Students to Reach Their Full Potential

The Gifted Endorsement Program is designed for teachers to serve gifted learners through highly effective instructional practices, differentiation, and an engaging curriculum. The Gifted Intervention Specialist Endorsement comprises 18 hours of coursework focusing on the eight Ohio Department of Education Teacher Competencies and prepares teachers for the Ohio Assessments for Educators (OAE) Gifted Education test (053).

Students can enroll online from anywhere in the state to add this Gifted Intervention Specialist Endorsement to their current Ohio teaching license.

This unique program is designed for teachers who want to develop, teach, and supervise the curriculum. Teachers will gain a deep understanding of:

  • The social and emotional needs of gifted students
  • Effective methods for providing gifted services
  • The support needed for gifted students in Ohio’s K-12 schools
