The SEEM Collaborative has been approved by the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to provide the full and administrator SEI Endorsement courses for cost. This is an ESE approved route to SEI Endorsement for all educators (both academic and CVTE) who have ELs and their supervisors.
The Sheltered English Instruction (SEI) Teachers Endorsement course is designed to help equip teachers to address the needs of a multilingual and multicultural student population by training teachers in research-proven practices for working with English Learners (ELs). During the course, teachers are expected to practice instructional strategies grounded in SEI research both in the endorsement course and in their classrooms. Teachers will also be encouraged to sustain and develop their SEI practices over time through a variety of professional growth opportunities. This course is designed to promote continuous improvement in educator practice and to build teachers' confidence and familiarity with instructional methodology for working with English Learners. Upon successful completion of the course, participating teachers will receive an SEI endorsement and 67.5 PDPs. 3 Graduate Credits ($295) or Undergraduate Credits ($240) are available through Fitchburg State University for an additional cost. Registration instructions are given the first night of class. Class meetings will be online via Zoom. **If you need any accommodations in accordance with the ADA, please contact Catherine Hindle no later than 2 weeks before the start date** More
