Teacher Certification • Ag teachers will be able to teach the two science courses and one math course with their current certifications during the 2010 – 11 school year. Next year, TEA will develop an in-service for the courses and at that time those ag teachers will have one year to do the training. So for the next two years, you can teach the math and science courses with no additional training or in-service. On floral design, you can teach it for Fine Arts credit with no additional training or in-service. For professional communications, you will have to have either 6 hours of speech on your college transcript or be speech certified.
