ALTERNATIVE CERTIFICATION
Johnson 2
WHAT IS ALTERNATIVE CERTIFICATION?
Illinois has established a process that allows qualifying individuals to become teachers through an alternative route to certification. A qualifying individual must go through several phases of an extremely rigorous program. After taking three courses, an individual may begin a one year teaching internship. An initial teaching certificate can be issued within 18 months. If you believe you qualify for this type of program, go to the links below.

IS THE ROCKFORD PUBLIC SCHOOLS OFFERING AN ALTERNATIVE CERTIFICATION PROGRAM?
Not at this time.
