Questions and Answers:
Are Heritage Institute courses good for recertification?
Credits shown are for professional continuing education purposes, are not applicable at Antioch University for an academic degree, and are not guaranteed applicable for academic credit at other institutions. Check with your degree program advisor to determine if these credits will qualify.
400 Level: Professional continuing education quarter credit is offered at the 400 level (upper division).
500 Level: Courses numbered 500 are intended as post-baccalaureate courses appropriate for students who already hold undergraduate degrees.
Antioch University Seattle does not award letter grades. Credits are awarded on a credit/no credit basis with credit awarded equivalent to a grade of "C" or higher in 400 level courses, or a grade of "B" or higher in 500 (post-baccalaureate) level courses. This is stated on the reverse side of the Antioch transcript. Antioch University credits are acceptable in many states toward educator re-certification and within school districts for salary advancement. Educators should check with their district administration before registering for a course. Credits earned from Antioch University's Center for Continuing Education are not accepted for transfer to an Antioch degree.
Coursework offered by The Heritage Institute may not be accepted by other colleges or universities. Prior to registering, check with your department head to determine if these credits will apply toward your degree program. This information is stated on the back of the transcript.

COLLABORATION
Can I collaborate with other teachers on a Heritage course?
The Heritage Institute encourages collaboration among teachers when taking our distance courses.
Research supports what teachers already know: working collaboratively with other teachers enhances professional development. Working in collaborative groups enhances collegial relationships, builds awareness of research-based practices and reforms, increases knowledge of school-wide issues, and improves teachers’ capacity to undertake instructional improvement.
Collaboration is allowed on Distance study courses taken for University credit.
