The Administrator Training Program (ATP) is an approved pathway for Tier II credentialing. The California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) authorizes the completion of an SBE-approved Administrator Training Program as one of the options for earning the Professional Administrative Services Credential. Certification of the completion of all ATP training requirements may be submitted to fulfill Tier II credential requirements.

In addition, two years of site experience are required. Administrators may sign up for ATP training with one year of site experience, but they must complete their second year of site experience prior to applying to the CTC for their credential.

NOTE: ACSA provides an SBE-approved Administrator Training Program for Modules 2 and 3.
