Introduction

The World Languages subtests taken toward a Single Subject Teaching Credential differ from the subtests taken toward a Bilingual Authorization. For more information on certification requirements, see Tests Used Toward Certification. 

For the Single Subject Teaching Credential in Hebrew, candidates must also pass the appropriate language assessment administered by a CTC-approved assessor agency. For more information, refer to the Verifying Subject Matter Competence by Examination (Single Subject) leaflet CL-674S pdf opens in new window, on the CTC's website.
