Wisconsin Seal of Biliteracy Implementation Resources for Registered Districts

The Wisconsin Seal of Biliteracy is awarded to high school students who have demonstrated advanced achievement in bilingualism, biliteracy, and sociocultural competence in two or more languages. Districts must register with DPI prior to implementing the Seal of Biliteracy in their schools. Registration materials are posted on the main DPI Seal of Biliteracy webpage.
The resources on this page are intended to support registered districts in implementing the Seal of Biliteracy.
Digital Seal of Biliteracy Certificates Endorsed by State Superintendent

A student who meets Wisconsin Seal of Biliteracy Program completion criteria is eligible for a Seal of Biliteracy certificate from the State Superintendent of Public Instruction. Seal of Biliteracy coordinators from registered districts can generate a digital certificate for student distribution by accessing the Seal of Biliteracy state-certified credentials application through WISEhome. Districts will be given access to the Seal of Biliteracy application in WISEhome once they have submitted a Seal of Biliteracy registration form to DPI and completed the Seal of Biliteracy orientation module. Information about the registration and orientation process can be found on DPI's main Seal of Biliteracy webpage.
To determine whether a student has met the criteria to be awarded a Seal of Biliteracy certificate, please refer to DPI's Seal of Biliteracy Criteria At-a-Glance document.
