Education Specialist Credential Program Information for Candidates that Hold a Valid Credential
Candidates that hold a valid SB 2042 Preliminary Multiple Subject or Single Subject Credential obtained through an accredited California Teacher Preparation Program, may petition to waive the following courses in excess of the allowed 9 units of course equivalencies:
- EDSP 410
- EDEL 452/EDSE 457
- EDSP 518 (Multiple Subject Credential Holders & Single Subject Math Holders Only)
- EDSP 558
- EDSP 534 (Must take UDCP 414 - 1 unit Spring ONLY)
- EDSP 564
Candidates will complete and addition 12 units plus 4 units of student teaching over 8 weeks.
Candidates that completed their Preliminary Multiple Subject or Single Subject Credential through an institution other than CSULB must submit course descriptions by completing the ESCP MMSN/ESN Advisement Equivalency Request form. Contact the SSAC for this form. Course Equivalencies will be considered case by case.
Individual consideration for other courses within the ESCP program will evaluated through the Course Equivalency process.
Candidates are still required to submit a complete program application on MyCED by the appropriate deadline. Candidates may be considered for admission to the credential program without EDSP 454 and may be allowed to take this course in their first semester in the program along with core courses.

Contact the Student Success & Advising Center at 562-985-1105 or ced-ssac@csulb.edu if you have any questions.
Candidates that hold any credential other than a California SB 2042 credential will be considered on a case by case basis.
