KRS 161.028 requires that the Education Professional Standards Board develop a professional code of ethics. The Professional Code of Ethics for Kentucky Certified Personnel is codified in 16 KAR 1:020, establishes the ethical standards for Kentucky certified school personnel and establishes that violation of the code may be grounds for revocation or suspension of Kentucky teacher or administrator certification.

Completed application; minimum 42 semester credit hours; cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.75 or 3.0 for the most recent college-level courses; grades of C or above in designated courses; 25 field hours with all data submitted in Kentucky Field Experiences Tracking System (KFETS) and verified through documentation signed by mentor teachers; three professional dispositions instruments; passing scores on the Praxis Core Academic Skills for Educators (CORE), a test of academic content published by the Educational Testing Service (ETS; http://www.ets.org): Reading (5713) score of 156; Writing (5723) score of 162; and Mathematics (5733) score of 150; well-written autobiographical sketch, interview; and any other prerequisites as determined by the School of Education and Human Development.

The student candidate will have a formal application procedure for admission that includes; critical thinking, communication, creativity, and collaboration. The student candidate will sign with this document during interview processing indicating that they have read the Professional Code of Ethics document.

Completed application; 200 field hours with all data submitted in Kentucky Field Experiences Tracking System (KFETS) and verified through documentation signed by mentor teachers; cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.75 or higher, at the end of the semester prior to the semester of student teaching; passing grades in all courses in the Liberal Studies Core; grades of C or above in all education foundation courses and education content courses; three professional dispositions instruments; passing scores on ETS Praxis II PLT and passing scores on content exam(s) or at least attempted the content exam(s); clear state- and national-level criminal report submitted to the placement district; current physical examination report, including a TB skin test or x-ray (available through KSU Betty White Clinic); verification of current liability insurance obtained through Kentucky Education Association (KEA); forms and fees required for graduation; and other prerequisites as determined by the TEC. Note: Student teaching placements are the result of collaboration between the School of Education and Human Development and school district leaders. While student preferences and requests are taken into consideration in placement decisions, other factors are considered as well, including diversity of field and life experiences, teaching and learning opportunities offered by districts, research being conducted, and supervision logistics. While the University understands and supports district needs for diversity and “grow-your-own” initiatives, the norm is for student teachers not to be placed in schools they attended as P-12 students.

70 documented days of student teaching, with each day being a minimum of six hours; electronic submission of multiple assignments that demonstrate competency in teaching; professional dispositions at the expected level; and cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 2.75 or higher, at the end of the student teaching semester. Note: Student teaching is a demanding and continuously assessed experience of fully engaged, unpaid teaching in P-12 schools. Candidates may not be employed during the hours of student teaching, which often surpass the students' school day due to before- and after-school planning and meetings. Students are encouraged to think and plan ahead financially and logistically for their full-time semester of student teaching.

To earn an undergraduate degree from the School of Education and Human Development, a student admitted to KSU must complete all course, field and clinical experiences. Students should consult with their academic advisors and the faculty to learn more about their specific programs. Requirements for admission to the University, admission to the Educator Preparation Program (EPP), admission to student teaching, and/or program completion may be changed by a decision or action of an accrediting agency, the Kentucky Legislature, KSU Faculty Senate, KSU administration, the Teacher Education Committee (TEC), or the EPP. Students who are admitted to the EPP and then are not enrolled in courses for a period of 12 months or longer, are withdrawn from the EPP. When students re-enroll in the University, they must meet the criteria for admission to their EPP that are in place at that time.
