Program Description

These video-based courses have been reviewed and approved by the Education Department and the College of Arts and Sciences to be offered to non-degree seeking educators who wish graduate credit for recertification and salary advancement. If you hold a teaching certificate in CT, MA, ME, NH, RI, or VT and are not matriculated in UNE's M.S.Ed. program, you are eligible to enroll in these courses that stand alone and do not lead to any degree or certificate. Each 3-credit course is equivalent to a 45 contact-hour graduate course. Since these courses are offered in conjunction with Canter & Associates, for registration information go to http://www.canter.net.

Admission Requirements

- Must hold a teaching certificate
- Cannot be matriculated in a master’s level UNE program

Academic Policies

Submissions
All course work must be typed or computer-generated.  If hand-written material is submitted, it will be returned.

Deadlines
Course cancellation policies and completion deadlines are outlined in the Course Information Packet that is sent with all course materials.  It is the responsibility of the student to become familiar with all deadlines since they fluctuate each term, but these deadlines will be strictly enforced to ensure the integrity of fairness to all students.

Incomplete Grades
An Incomplete (I) grade may be given by the Education Department Chair to a student who, for reasons beyond his/her control, is not able to complete the work on time. The student must request an emergency extension from the Education Department Chair (by letter or via e-mail) prior to the course work deadline in the term which the student has registered for the course. The I grade must be changed with the time limit determined by the department chair and may not extend beyond one term following the end of the semester. Until changed, the I grade defers computation of credits and grade point for the course to which it is assigned. Failure to complete the work before the limitation date, or within the time imposed by the department chair, results in the assignment of an administrative F grade for the course. The administrative F will remain a permanent part of the student’s academic record for that semester. The student will be required to retake and repay for the course in order to receive credit when an F or an administrative F has been given. Once an I grade is removed, academic standing will be updated according to good standing or probationary standards.
