Abstract: There have been renewed calls and attention on middle level certification/licensure since 2021 (see Bishop & Harrison, 2021; Dever et al., 2024; Hurd, 2022). Specifically, those calls and the attention have focused on specialized teacher development for young adolescents and middle level teacher preparation programs. Unquestionably, middle level education, and education in general, have been under intense scrutiny and attack (Berkemeyer & Campbell, 2025). This has only added to the vital importance of having current and useful data on the status of programs across the United States. It has been nearly 10 years since the last national review of middle level teacher preparation programs. Since that time, much has changed in education and society, necessitating another investigation into the status of middle level programs that offer specialized teacher preparation. This study reinvestigates the current status of public and private undergraduate middle level teacher preparation programs in the United States. This work is part of a national review of middle level specific and middle level endorsement teacher preparation programs.
