Are you pursuing certification in Special Education EC–12? The Texas State Board for Educator Certification (SBEC) has announced a major change:
Beginning September 1, 2025, the current TExES Special Education EC–12 (#161) exam will be replaced by the new TExES Special Education Specialist EC–12 (#186) exam.
What This Means for You:
Internships Starting On or Before September 1, 2025: If your internship begins on or before this date, you should continue preparing for the TExES Special Education EC–12 (#161) exam.
Internships Starting After September 1, 2025: You’ll need to prepare for the new TExES Special Education Specialist EC–12 (#186) exam, as the #161 exam will no longer be offered.
Make sure you’re using the appropriate study materials based on your internship timeline. Our updated resources and guidance will ensure you’re ready for whichever exam you take.
