EDEX-EDMA Comparison ^{_{( 44kB)}}
Due to recently updated federal guidelines, some requirements for Drake University credit have changed effective July 1, 2011. Heartland AEA will continue to offer license renewal credit (LR) as before and Drake graduate credit for courses meeting the guidelines. However, if a participant seeks to use the graduate credit towards a master’s degree program, he/she must earn EDMA credit (new opportunity). As always, educators are encouraged to check with their university to determine what (if any) courses can be applied to a master’s program. Please see the attached grid for more information. If you have questions, please contact Sue Schirmer at sschirmer@aea11.k12.ia.us or at ext. 14379.
