ACT 48 | Muhlenberg College

Teacher Certification: ACT 48

Muhlenberg College is an Approved Provider in the Act 48 Continuing Professional Education Program for the Pennsylvania Department of Education.

Individuals with current PA certification are eligible for Act 48 credit. However, since courses must be relevant to the teacher's area of concentration, each case needs to be looked at individually.

If you are interested in learning more about our program, please complete the form or contact our office at 484-664-3300 to schedule an initial meeting with the Director of Teacher Certification. In addition, a copy of your resumé and any transcripts you may have will help assess what courses you need to take.

I would like to schedule an advisement meeting.
