Classes with the 2000 designation are considered graduate, professional-development level. These courses do not require admission to the NDSU Graduate School, and consequently, are not eligible for use on graduate programs of study. Because they are graduate level, a bachelor's degree is a prerequisite for registration. Educators should verify with their certification/licensing boards and/or school district to ensure professional development courses will meet their individual professional development needs prior to registering.
VESi recommends that you check with your school district and/or state licensing agency to verify these course offerings will meet your district and/or state requirements for salary advancement and/or state certificate re-licensure.
