Act 48 Pennsylvania
4-Course Bundle

$399 180 Hours
No start dates. No deadlines. Finish at your own pace.
We upload 45 Act 48 Hours to PERMS as you complete each course.
Purchase bundle — $399
  • ✓ 180 total Act 48 Hours (4 courses × 45 hours)
  • ✓ Self-Paced. Readings, discussions, quizzes and practical written assignments for your own classroom.
  • ✓ PERMS uploads included as you complete each course
  • ✓ Optional: 3 Graduate Level Professional Development (PD) Credits per course from UMass Global, for a $190 university fee per course (only if and when you choose to add them). Choose one per course: PDE counts the credits as 90 Act 48 hours in place of the 45 once your official transcript reaches PDE, or keep your 45 Act 48 hours (we upload them to PERMS) and use the credits toward your district salary lane only. Want 15 Graduate Level PD Credits? See our Build Your Own 5-Course Bundle.
  • ✓ Also can count toward Level II certification: with the optional credits on all four courses, those 12 Graduate Level PD Credits can count toward the 24 post-baccalaureate credits Pennsylvania requires for Instructional II — 12 of the 24. PDE accepts graduate credits from accredited degree-granting universities and reviews each transcript (other requirements apply; you apply through PDE/TIMS).
