  • Preference is given to teachers who have served as a cooperating teacher in the past year.
  • Money will not exceed the cost of one graduate level class.  Books and fees are not included.
  • Teachers have to be enrolled at UNO pursuing an advanced degree, adding a graduate level endorsement or seeking professional development credit in the education field.
  • The class must be taken within a one year period or the money will be returned to the program.
