2019-20 Course to Endorsement Catalogue
The
Course-to-Endorsement Catalogue is a collaborative project between
ODE,
TSPC and Districts which identifies by endorsements the courses that the teacher is authorized to teach. Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires the teacher be properly licensed/endorsed for each course he/she teaches.
The Catalogue includes descriptions of each course. Districts are encouraged to read the descriptions for the course codes to select the course code that best fits the content being taught. The Catalogue was updated on 1/30/2019 with minor additions/changes to
CTE endorsements and Foundational Math.
Please read the
Using the Course-to-Endorsement Catalogue instruction document to understand how the Catalogue works.
2019-20 Course to Endorsement Lookup Tool
The
Course to Endorsement Lookup Tool contains the same information as the Catalogue, just in a dropdown menu format. This new tool was published on 9/03/19.
The tool contains both a lookup table to search course codes that can be taught by specific endorsement, and a lookup table to search endorsements authorized to teach a specific course code. The tool lists all possible endorsements that teachers may have (which includes endorsements that are being phased out based on Licensure Redesign).
Licensing
In Oregon, the Teacher Standards and Practices Commission is the licensing agency for all educators.
Please visit the
Teacher Standards and Practices Commission website for more information.
Career and Technical Education (CTE) Licensing
To teach in an Oregon state approved
CTE program, the instructor must have an appropriate
CTE license and/or endorsement, specific to the program career area.
For more information, please visit the
Career and Technical Education Teacher Licensure page.
