CSET I and II Institutes:
I have never studied this material in the past. What should I do?
Our CSET content institutes are meant to be a review of the material covered in the CSET exams. There is a large amount of material covered in each test, and 40 hours leaves little time to review all of it. If you have never studied some of the material in the past, we recommend that you take your time to learn it (on your own or through a course) before taking the test. If you are vaguely familiar with the material, but not solid in your knowledge, another option might be to attend the institute, but rather than taking the test immediately, practice and study for another period of time and take the following test.
Does this institute replace the CSET test?
These courses do NOT replace the actual test.
Can I participate in the CSET I and the CSET II Institutes at the same time?
We do not offer the CSET institutes at the same time as there is a substantial amount of homework involved in taking each institute.
Can I receive credit for this institute?
Yes. We offer three math units of College of Extended Learning credit. The fee for credit is $240.00 (which is NOT included in your registration fee).
Are solutions available for the practice problems in the text?
Yes, solution are available in the textbook.
Will we be taking a practice CSET exam during the institute?
No, we will focus on reviewing the mathematics content on the CSET.
Is attendance mandatory for these institutes?
While attendance is not mandatory, it is recorded and reviewed for course credit eligibility. Remember, what you get out of these courses reflects what you put in.
Are meetings recorded, and can I access them?
Session recordings are at the discretion of the professor. If you expect to be absent during one of the meetings, it is best to communicate with the professor on how to proceed.
Where may I find more information regarding authorizations?
Details regarding authorizations may be found on the CA.GOV Commission on Teacher Credentialing site.
