TExES Testing Information
Texas law requires all individuals seeking educator certification to pass examinations in the areas in which they seek certification. This includes a content exam as well as pedagogy exam for those seeking initial teacher certification. Other examinations may be required according to the certificate being sought. The purpose of these examinations is to ensure that each educator has the necessary academic content and professional knowledge to perform in Texas public schools. In the fall of 2002, the State Board for Educator Certification (SBEC) introduced a new generation of certificates for Texas educators and implemented a new educator certification examination program called the Texas Examinations of Educator Standards (TExES).
