Graduate Partner Changes for License Renewal Courses

The following changes took effect for courses offering graduate credit through the statewide AEA Professional Learning Registration system starting Sept. 1, 2019, or after:

• All courses ​with​ graduate credit will be offered for Drake, Grand View and Morningside credit. The 30 hours of outside work per credit will still be required. As before, all participants in the course must do the outside work no matter what type of credit they choose.

• Instructor stipends will not be paid by any of the colleges.

• The cost for graduate credit from all three colleges will be $90 per credit.

• For courses with a paid instructor, the registration fees per credit are as follows:
• Participant Only = $85
• License Renewal Credit = $85
• Graduate Credit = $85 + $90 or $175

• For courses with no instructor pay, the registration fees per credit are as follows:
• Participant Only = $0
• License Renewal Credit = $35
• Graduate Credit = $35 + $90 or $125

Instructors are not required to offer courses for graduate credit. They can be offered for License Renewal Credit only. If a class is not offered for graduate credit, the 30 hours of outside work are not required.
