Foreign Language Graduate Credits for Teachers

Sometimes school districts require that in order for teachers to become recertified, they must have so many graduate credits to put towards their application for recertification. Well, I've found a few affodable graduate credits generally offered by partnerships between community-serving organizations and universities.

Enjoy!

Annenburg Learner Formerly Annenburg Media, this organization offers teacher workshops and professional development in English, Writing, Foreign Languages amongst others.
