If you or someone you know are interested in applying for certification, please review the information about courses offered through UConn Early College Experience on our website at ece.uconn.edu. Potential instructors should also reference the certification requirements and process for certification. In addition, a representative from the ECE office may be available to schedule a school visit to help encourage the recruitment of qualified instructors. Contact the ECE office at ece@uconn.edu for more details. It is an exciting time to become a certified UConn instructor!
The submission deadline for 2018-2019 certification applications is January 31, 2018.
