Program Overview
College of Education and Behavioral Sciences
The Gifted Education Core Endorsement graduate program prepares teachers at the elementary and secondary level to work with gifted and talented students in order to help them develop their full potential. Successful completion of this program will allow teachers with a Colorado teaching license to add the Gifted Education Core Endorsement to their current licenses. Students are required to pass the approved Praxis exam prior to adding the endorsement. The program consists of the required courses and practicum requirements agreed upon by the student and advisor.
Federal student loans are not currently available to students who are pursuing a CO state license (initial or additional) through UNC's stand-alone, graduate level licensure programs without being simultaneously enrolled in a Masters, Specialist, or Doctoral program.
