NEW TEACHER LICENSURE EXAMINATIONS for licensure to teach WORLD LANGUAGES
Under the adopted phase-in plan, candidates for licensure in Spanish, French and German may continue to utilize the Praxis subject assessments until SEPTEMBER 1, 2010 or may instead choose to complete the ACTFL assessments. Candidates for licensure in previously untested languages will complete the ACTFL assessments beginning SEPTEMBER 1, 2009. As of SEPTEMBER 1, 2010, all candidates for world languages licensure will need to complete the ACTFL assessments. The required score on both the OPI and WPT will be Intermediate/High. Licensure candidates will still complete the Praxis II Principles of Learning and Teaching test.
For information on the ACTFL/LTI examinations please visit the organization’s website at www.languagetesting.com In the future their website will feature a customized Ohio page where you will be able to see information specific to Ohio testing procedures and requirements.
