<DIV>Hello,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>From what I understand, the individual pathway for initial certification
has been extended until September 2013 according to Teaching Initiatives, which
is stated in their web page at Teach Login. I was surprised to find out the
extension was given to except for early childhood</DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>This morning after waiting for an hour to speak
with a representative from the new York state education department I found out
that I was granted a time extension for my initial certification as a
certified teacher of the blind and visually impaired. Subsequently, I emailed
this information to the administrator of related and contractual services who
informed that I could begin teaching students who needed vision education
services. What a miracle!</FONT></DIV>
