Academic Endorsements

  • An endorsement is a rider on a Florida certificate with full subject coverage and denotes a particular expertise in an instructional level or methodology. An endorsement cannot stand alone on a certificate. Educators who hold a valid Florida Temporary or Professional Certificate may be eligible to add an endorsement. At a minimum, the educator must submit a complete application package to satisfy the subject specialization requirements outlined in State Board Rule to qualify for adding each subject certificate or endorsement. You can review the specific requirements for each endorsement by clicking on the corresponding link found in the tabs below.
