Certification of UVEI Graduates
The Upper Valley Educators Institute is a nonprofit corporation, independent of any other educational institution. The program is accredited by the Accrediting Council for Continuing Education and Training (ACCET). UVEI is approved to recommend teacher certification to the Department of Education of the State of New Hampshire, and UVEI graduates routinely earn Vermont certification.
State certification requirements, however, are not uniform, and they are constantly changing. Special courses, varying Praxis tests, or additional qualifications may be demanded by some states. Applicants should discuss their certification needs with the UVEI staff and check with the Department of Education in their targeted states.
