About the Connecticut Literacy Specialist Program
The CT Literacy Specialist Certification is also known as the CLSP program. The overall goal of this program is to prepare our students to lead educators and school districts into the best practices of school reform available in the 21st century. They will be knowledgeable proponents of action research and change agents assisting schools in promoting community literacy as well as student performance. Through this program certified Connecticut teachers may obtain certification as a Remedial Reading Specialist (102).
There are 21 credits of required graduate coursework to earn the Connecticut Literacy Speciality certification (including 3 credits in a public school clinic and 3 credits in a one-to-one clinic).
