State Exam Registration

State Approval to Test

All students seeking certification through TTU are required to have “approval to test” each time you register for a state exam. This includes exams for teacher certification, professional certification and re-taking an exam. Authorization for the exams is given by your program and will be communicated with the certification office.

Exam Approval

1. Each program establishes a set of benchmarks to ensure the candidate is prepared prior to giving exam approval.
2. Once benchmarks are met, a candidate's name will be sent to the certification office for approval to test.
3. The content exam must be passed prior to student teaching.
