State-specific Orientation is a one-hour virtual session designed to help new Relay students understand key certification, licensure, and teaching expectations based on where you live and work. These sessions are led by faculty and staff from your state and give you the chance to:

  • Learn about the licensure process in your state
     

  • Understand key expectations and requirements
     

  • Connect with the local team who will support you at Relay


 

🗓️ Special Note: June 23 & July 14 Sessions

If you're enrolled in EDU-500, EDU-540, or EDU-505 on Monday, June 23 or Monday, July 14, you can attend the State-specific Orientation sessions scheduled for those same days. These sessions are intentionally timed to follow your coursework.

If you’re in an in-person class on either of those days, be sure to choose an orientation session that works for your schedule—either later that day (if time allows) or on a different date. Multiple orientation dates are available to offer flexibility.
