Please Note:
Heartland AEA has assured us that successful completion of
multiple NICHE Conference teacher re-certification credit classes
are recognized by the certifying agency as multiple, distinct credits.
This is because each NICHE conference is unique
and each NICHE teacher re-certification class title has a distinct year included in the title.
While we would urge you to diversify your credit class choices as much as possible,
it is our understanding that you can take the NICHE conference class more than once for distinct credit.

Questions may be directed to: teachercredit@homeschooliowa.org
