Alternate Routes to Certification
APPLY NOW TO BECOME A SCHOOL LIBRARY MEDIA SPECIALIST!
ACES is accepting applications for the 2020-21 Alternate Route to Certification for Library Media Specialists (ARCLMS).
Visit www.aces.org/arclms for
full details, schedule & application.
Earn a cross-endorsement while you continue to teach!
ARCLMS is an advanced educator preparation program approved by the CT State Board of Education. It was developed by ACES in response to the statewide shortage of qualified, certified school library media specialists in CT.
Teachers who complete the one year program of study will earn cross-endorsement #062, Library Media Specialist K-12, and are eligible for employment as a library media specialist in any CT public school.
In order to provide a high-quality and accessible instructional experience for all learners, ARCLMS is offered as a blended learning
program.
However, due to uncertainties related to the COVID-19 health crisis, ACES is prepared to offer this program fully online should the need arise in the 2020-21 program year.
Applications will be accepted through August 15, 2020
and will be reviewed on a
biweekly basis. Cohorts are open until filled, so don’t wait to apply!
