Those pursuing this certificate must apply on their own to the NYS Education Department via the Individual Pathway. They must also pass the Content Specialty Test for Students with Disabilities and attend a mandated workshop in meeting the needs of students with autism and another 6-hour DASA workshop.
Required courses in the four NYSED competency areas offered by Brooklyn College:
