Advance Your Career and Change Lives Along the Way
Educators with gifted certifications often get the pleasure of engaging with students who approach the world a little differently. This certification also gives you more career options and will qualify you for higher pay. Gifted Intervention Specialists often engage students as supporting faculty, gather and analyze key data and see their roles expand. Gifted Intervention Specialists are also often invited to speak at conferences and seminars, giving you a unique platform as you support gifted students everywhere.
