How do I qualify for the Early Completion Option (ECO)?

Early Completion Option: Requirements and Key Deadlines for Accelerated Credentialing

In order to qualify for the ECO program, candidates must meet all program admissions requirements including the subject matter competency requirement, sign the ECO Expectations Agreement, and pass the NES Assessment of Professional Knowledge (NES APK). NES APK passing scores must be submitted before the intended academic term begins. Upon enrollment, ECO candidates must also take and pass the summer preservice course to be eligible for the District Intern Credential by the start of the academic year.
