REGISTRATION AND CREDITS EARNED

The 600 course designation at NDSU is for graduate level professional development purposes and is designed to help teachers stay current in their fields, meet their recertification needs, and salary advancement goals.

Courses with the 600 designation do not require admission to the NDSU graduate school, and consequently, are not eligible for use on graduate programs of study. A bachelor's degree is a prerequisite for registration. Registration is not complete until payment has been received. Individuals should verify with their certification/licensing boards to ensure professional development courses will meet their individual professional needs prior to registering. A maximum of 15 graduate credits is allowed per semester.
