While NOT a program completion requirement, teachers applying for an initial Indiana teaching license must present a CPR certification card.

The KY Education Professional Standards Board announced in the last week of June, 2012, that applicants for a KY “Statement of Eligibility”, who complete their coursework at an out-of-state institution (including IU Southeast), must first acquire a license from the institution’s state, and provide a copy of that license with their application for the KY license. (For an IN license, graduates must have the proper CPR/AED/Heimlich certification, pass the necessary IN Praxis II test(s), and apply and pay for an IN license.)
