The Educative Teacher Performance Assessment (edTPA) is a national assessment of teacher candidates’ readiness to teach that is required of all initial licensure candidates in Minnesota.
The assessment focuses on the impact the teacher has on student engagement and learning.
| Important Announcement Effective July 2024, teacher candidates who complete the approved University of Minnesota teacher preparation programs are no longer required to submit Task 2 of the edTPA to Pearson. However, they are still required to complete and submit Tasks 1 and 3 of the edTPA. Each UMN-TC teacher licensure program has the autonomy to determine program and licensure completion requirements, including Task 2 of the edTPA. Candidates are advised to check in with their license program lead for the current program policy on Task 2. |
