Credential Files
Credential files contain letters of recommendation. They do not contain transcripts, resumes or copies of certification. The credential file serves as an important source of information to potential employers because recommendations from past and/or current employers permit prospective employers to get a sense of your professional qualifications. This file should be established in September of your senior year or the year in which you student teach. Download the Credential file form (in Word Format)
