TESL CERTIFICATE The One-Year Certificate in Teaching English as a Second Language is a 24-hour, two-semester program that provides the specialized courses that are part of the BRE degree program concentration in TESL. The program is especially attractive to those individuals coming from other institutions who already possess a bachelor’s degree or equivalent and want to engage in a concentrated program of study in TESL. The TESL Certificate Program may also be completed through part-time study or totally online. This program is also offered in intensive format at the satellite campus of North Syracuse Baptist Church. Admission to this program is limited to students who already possess: 1) at least 12 semester hours (or equivalent) of Bible or theology, 2) at least six semester hours of college English, and 3) a desire to apply their skills as teachers of English as a second language as a ministry. Particular requirements may be waived at the discretion of the TESL concentration chair. The TESL Certificate program is not intended for those who wish to teach English as a second language within public schools in the United States, and it does not grant state certification. It should be noted that in most countries, it is impossible to obtain a work permit for an ESL or EFL teaching position without a baccalaureate degree. Although students without a degree are allowed into this program, they are encouraged to enroll in the BRE degree with a major in Bible/Theology and a concentration in TESL.
