Teacher Certification

Georgia is always looking for excellent teachers.
Here are some resources to join the ranks of the states most qualified educators.

Certification Path for Audio Video Technology & Film Teachers

Teacher certification rules in the field of Audio Video Technology & Film (AVTF) allow individuals to enter the teaching profession based on occupational experience in the field and the minimum education level required by the Georgia Professional Standards Commission (PSC).

For the area of Broadcast and Video Production, the Georgia Professional Standards Commission (GAPSC) requires that teaching candidates must:

  1. Hold an associate’s degree or higher in broadcast and video production OR communication OR a PSC determined equivalent.

  2. Have at least 2 years of occupational work experience in the field.
