Supplementary/Subject
Matter – What are they?
 Supplementary Authorizations (SA) and Subject
Matter Authorizations (SMA) are authorizations that
can be added to a basic credential.
 SA/SMA’s allow an educator to teach in a subject
area other than the subject area of the basic
credential earned.
 SA/SMA’s can only be earned on the basis of
course work.
 In general, SMA’s are No Child Left Behind
Compliant (NCLB), SA’s are not.
 Education/methodology courses cannot be
counted.
Supplementary/Subject
matter—What are they?
 If you have at least 12 units of coursework in
another subject, you may check the
supplementary/subject matter authorization box
on your credential request form.
 Your analyst will review your transcripts to see if
you could qualify for any additional authorization
(teaching middle school).
 For those who are interested, we will go over the
supplementary and subject matter authorizations
in more detail at the end of the meeting. Please
