- Alaska accepts either physical education test, but the bars are far apart: Content and Design (5095) at 169 or Content Knowledge (5091) at 146. Choose deliberately.
- Health and Physical Education is a separate certificate on test 5857 at 160.
Required, but not an exam
- A bachelor’s degree
- An approved educator preparation program, traditional or alternative
- Background check and application through the state certification office
