CoSN’s Framework of Essential Skills of the K-12 CTO is comprised of three primary professional categories in the education technology field: Leadership & Vision, Understanding the Educational Environment, and Managing Technology & Support Resources. Each of these categories includes 10 essential skill areas, outlining the responsibilities and knowledge needed to be a viable educational technology leader. Each of these skills and the related knowledge needed to demonstrate them are included in CoSN’s Certified Education Technology Leader (CETL®) certification exam.
All CoSN Professional Learning opportunities are independent of the CETL® certification program, which requires a separate application. The CETL® program is governed by the CETL® Certification Governance Committee, an independent certifying body of CoSN. In adherence to best practices for certifying bodies, CETL® Certification Governance Committee volunteers and CETL® Certification staff are not involved in the development of any preparatory program, and no preparatory program is endorsed by the CETL® Certification Governance Committee nor is a prerequisite to earn the CETL®. The CETL® Certification Governance Committee and its staff are solely responsible for the policies and administration of the CETL® program, including application deadlines and qualification requirements.
