The post-baccalaureate endorsement in marketing education is designed to prepare a person who has a baccalaureate degree to be a marketing education teacher-coordinator. Participants who successfully complete this program will qualify to apply for a Virginia teaching license to teach marketing education.

Admission

Students subsequently complete undergraduate or graduate level courses that meet Virginia licensure requirements.  For students simultaneously seeking a graduate degree, they should apply for the graduate program and may take up to 12 credit hours that may be used toward both the MS and post-baccalaureate programs. Students should schedule an interview with the program coordinator for program admissions as well as to discuss course evaluation and options.
