The College of Education’s Educator Preparation Office will help you prepare to apply for your educator license in Massachusetts. Read their overview of the licensing process here.

You will also need to register with TK20 through this office. Tk20 stands for “Technology in Kindergarten through Age 20”. It’s an online system administered by UMass that serves multiple purposes. You’ll use it to collect material for your portfolio, complete forms, and submit MTEL scores. After you’re admitted to the licensure program, you’ll need to purchase a Tk20 account. This account remains active for five years after graduation. Log in to TK20 here.
