Changes to Earning Graduate Credit through Drake University

Due to recently updated federal guidelines, some requirements for Drake credit will change effective July 1, 2011. Heartland AEA 11 will continue to offer license renewal credit (LR) as before and Drake graduate credit for courses meeting the guidelines. However, if a participant seeks to use the graduate credit towards a master’s degree program, they must earn EDMA credit (new opportunity). As always, educators are encouraged to check with their university to determine what (if any) courses can be applied to a master’s program.

Also effective July 1, 2011, Drake University will no longer offer graduate credit for conferences, workshops or clinics. License renewal credits may still be earned if the conference, workshop or clinic meets the requirements.

If you have questions about these changes and new guidelines, please contact Sue Schirmer at sschirmer@aea11.k12.ia.us or at (800) 255-0405 ext. 14379.
