The Gifted Education Teacher endorsement may be used to provide instruction in a gifted education program, while the Gifted Education Specialist endorsement may be used to provide instruction to students and provide both technical assistance and professional development to other educators. ​​​Educators are not required to have a gifted education endorsement to teach gifted and accelerated programming.  For additional information on endorsements, please visit the Educator Licensure ​page. ​
