Connecticut elementary teacher candidates who enter in AY 2025-2026 as teaching residents will enroll in a Colorado-based educator preparation program. After completing all Colorado EPP requirements, Relay will verify completion of the Colorado Traditional Teacher Licensure program, which students may use to apply for licensure outside of Colorado. States set requirements for certification/licensure, reciprocity, and equivalent certificates/endorsements, and will make all determinations related to issuing or denying applications for certification/licensure. Refer to Certification/Licensure Pathways to learn more about applying for certification/licensure outside of Colorado.
