The Skill Performance Evaluation program is for CMV drivers who drive in interstate commerce. The SPE certification allows drivers with missing or impaired limbs to drive CMVs across state lines if they have been fitted with (and are wearing) the right prosthetic device, and the driver can demonstrate the ability to drive the truck safely by completing on-and off-road activities. If the driver passes the driving test, he or she will receive a SPE certificate. Over the years, FMCSA has granted more than 3,000 SPE certificates to truck drivers who have shown that they can drive safely on the nation's highways.
Drivers with physical impairments which affect their ability to safely operate CMVs according to their medical examiners, or with missing limbs (e.g., a hand or finger, an arm, foot or leg), are required to obtain SPE certificates.
In recent years, the demand for trained professionals in program evaluation has steadily increased. New tools in data collection and trends in accountability have created a need for well-designed program evaluations in funding agencies, non-profit organizations, and throughout the private sector. Our certificate in program evaluation prepares you to lead program evaluation efforts. You will learn applied methods, techniques, and processes, and how evaluation fits into larger economic, social, and political contexts.
The curriculum includes 8-9 credits of required coursework and 3-4 credits of elective coursework; coursework must total at least 12 credits. Students with sufficient background and previous course experience may apply for a waiver of content requirements.
Students may choose 3-4 credits of elective coursework from the following list to meet the overall program minimum of 12 credits. Additional courses may be approved by the program coordinator of evaluation studies.
Experience: Students must demonstrate relevant academic background, including research methodology and experience in a field in which program evaluation is practiced (e.g., public health, social work, or education). Admission will be based on an assessment of the applicant's advanced knowledge and level of professional experience in the field of program evaluation.
Individual department programs and tracks reserve the right to require readmitted students to retake coursework if they deem it appropriate. Readmitted students are also required to abide by current time-to-degree policies as determined by the University, which may differ from the policy in place when they first started the degree program.
Individuals seeking readmission to the Ph.D., Ed.D., and M.A. program tracks in the former EDPA, WHRE, and WCFE majors can only reapply to the appropriate program track under the Organizational Leadership, Policy, and Development (OLPD) major name.
You may submit an application for an evaluation of your credentials for a certificate. Before applying for a Certificate, please search for the requirements for the certificate you are requesting. Click on the Icon below to search the Certification requirements.
If you satisfy those requirements, the State Education Department will issue the appropriate certificate.

Evaluation through Regional Certification Offices
Individual evaluation (in most certificate areas) is available through any of the Regional Certification Offices located at Boards of Cooperative Educational Services throughout New York State. Applications submitted through the Regional Certification Offices are forwarded for review by the State Education Department. Regional Offices accept applications ONLY from those living within the office's jurisdiction or employed by one of its member school districts.
If you have not met all requirements for a certificate, you should complete all remaining course, assessment, and/or experience requirements first, and then submit the necessary original transcripts and other documentation at ONE time.
Please note that applications are valid for 3 years from the date they were submitted, or two manual evaluations - whichever comes first. If you do not satisfy the requirements within the lifetime of your application, your application will be disapproved and will no longer be active. If this happens, you may apply for certification again if the certification you applied for is still available. Then, you will have to submit documentation that satisfies all requirements listed on the application at that time.
Applicants who completed their education outside of the United States must have a foreign credential report submitted directly by an acceptable organization. We cannot accept a credential report submitted directly by the applicant.
A foreign credential report is only one of several requirements for certification. Applicants can review all of the steps involved in the certification process at our webpage entitled Certification from Start to Finish.
Please note that the Office of Teaching Initiatives does not process salary differential requests or other requests to review foreign credentials for purposes other than certification. In addition, the office does not return submitted foreign credentials or credential evaluation reports.

This certificate program equips students with the skills and knowledge to conduct and commission culturally responsive program evaluations through project-based learning. Students will work with their professors to complete real-world program evaluation projects.
This program also builds the capacities and capabilities of non-profit organizations, governmental agencies and entities that intersect with the grant-writing, grant-making and grant-funding processes, empowering them with the ability to propose, plan, conduct and commission program evaluations to develop effective programs, to inform program improvements and to demonstrate the impacts and return on investments of grant dollars.
Finally, this graduate certificate program will develop a pool of trained program evaluators that will be available in the local community to consult on program evaluation matters, thereby further increasing the program development and evaluation capabilities of organizations in the broader community.
