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 program of study will earn cross-endorsement #062,
School Library Media Specialist, and are eligible for employment as a library media specialist in any CT public school.
Program instruction is a blend of online synchronous and asynchronous learning, and in-person collaborative learning.
Applications will be accepted through July 31, 2025. Cohorts are
open until filled, so don’t wait to apply!
