Professional Development for In-Service P-12 Teachers

Southern Utah University’s (SUU) P-12 Program's goal is to offer P-12 schools affordable graduate education opportunities through general professional development, state department of education endorsements, and alternative pathways into licensure.

P-12 Application

Programs

There are multiple options for courses to help you pick what works best for you. Most of these courses are taught fully online in 7 week asynchronous format.

APPEL/APPEL SPED

Someone with a Bachelor's degree can obtain a teaching license. This enables district workers to get a license without doing another 4-year degree.

Endorsements

These are for teachers who already have a professional license to get specialty course work that goes on their transcript.

Professional Development

These courses give educators credit on their transcripts outside of APPEL or Endorsement programs.

If you want to further your degree, 12 credits (4 classes) of either an Endorsement or APPEL program can enroll you into SUU's General Master's of Education Program. You will have 1/3 of the degree completed!
