Getting Certified Certification Requirements and Information Sheet Below is a list of requirements you must meet to obtain a multiple subject (elementary school) or single subject (high school) teaching credential in California. Must have a bachelor's (or higher) degree from a regionally accredited college or university; Passage of the California Basic Educational Skills Test (CBEST); Demonstration of knowledge of the subject you want to teach (by examination or an approved program of coursework) Completion of a character identification clearance through a state and federal fingerprint check; Completion of a state-approved Teacher Preparation Program. This program must include coursework in teaching methodology, child/human development, and related subjects. It must also include a supervised fieldwork component. While there are no "shortcuts" to obtaining a teaching credential there are Pre-intern and Intern programs that provide paid employment as a teacher while completing the program. Intern programs are designed to meet the shortage of teachers in specific areas which generally are: math, science, special education, English, bilingual and elementary teachers. If you are interested in day-to-day substitute teaching, the basic requirements are a bachelor's degree and passage of the CBEST. You may apply for the 30-Day Substitute Permit directly to the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing. This permit will allow you to substitute in any school district in California that is in need of substitute teachers. It is good for one year and allows you to sub all year long in any classroom (but for no longer than 30 days for the same classroom teacher).

For an overseas position, it does not matter what state your license is from. Generally, applicants must hold a bachelors degree in the subject to be taught, achieve a passing score on state-required examinations, complete an intensive teacher preparation program, and possibly fulfill a supervised teaching internship. Specific information on which school systems are offering internships can be requested from the schools. After satisfactory completion of these requirements, the applicant will be issued a teaching credential.

< Return to Previous Southern California Teacher Recruitment Center Frequently Asked Questions About Teaching in California Q: What are the differences between CBEST, MSAT, and SSAT? A: CBEST - California Basic Educational Skills Test; MSAT - Multiple Subject Assessment Test; SSAT - Single Subject Assessment Test. CBEST must be passed before applying for an emergency permit and is the first step toward a teacher credential. The MSAT is the exam for prospective teachers or employed teachers who teach in an elementary classroom, or a classroom which includes instruction in multiple subjects (i.e., special education). Similarly, passing the SSAT in the content a secondary teacher is teaching is a step towards a preliminary credential in a single subject. Q: What is CLAD and BCLAD? Do I need them in order to teach? A: CLAD - Cross Cultural Language and Academic Development; BCLAD - Bilingual Cross Cultural Language and Academic Development. In sequence, the CLAD is completed first. The CLAD is being incorporated in teacher education programs. Graduates will be CLAD certified upon completing credential course work. There is also a state exam for CLAD offered through three tests which provide an alternative to CLAD coursework. Requirement of CLAD is a district decision; however, most districts require certification either at time of employment or within a designated time period they determine. The BCLAD is not generally required but may be viewed as desirable, especially in districts with a high Spanish speaking population.

Incentives to Teach in Southern California Extra Credit Teacher Home Purchase Program Offers home-ownership assistance to eligible teachers and principals who commit to work in low-performing schools. The program offers tax credits or mortgage revenue bonds when fully qualified teachers or principals meet specific eligibility requirements. California Housing Finance Authority http://www.chfa.ca.gov Teacher Next Door (800/217-6970) Makes it possible for qualified teachers to purchase HUD (Housing and Urban Development) homes at 50 percent discounts in HUD-designated revitalization areas. These areas are neighborhoods receiving targeted public and private sector assistance that offer opportunities for local economic growth. HUD will reduce the down payment to just $100 if a teacher purchases a new home with a FHA-insured mortgage. Teachers must live in their new homes for at least three years as the sole residence and the home must be located in the school district in which the teacher is employed. The homes offered for sale were previously insured (and later foreclosed on) through HUD’s Federal Housing Administration. U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development

Teacher Certification Isn't Working October 18, 2001 - The Abell Foundation just released "Teacher Certification Reconsidered: Stumbling for Quality." It argues that Maryland's teacher certification requirements should be loosened or eliminated because there is no credible evidence that they ensure quality. We agree. There is simply no good evidence that teacher certification produces demonstrable gains in student achievement. In fact, much of the research is embarrassingly deficient. A February 2001 report by the University of Washington Center for the Study of Teaching and Policy agrees: "There is no research that directly assesses what teachers learn in their pedagogical preparation and then evaluates the relationship of that pedagogical knowledge to student learning or teacher behavior." Taking the opposite view is the National Commission on Teaching and America's Future (NCTAF) led by Professor Linda Darling-Hammond. The Commission has been urging the states to adopt expanded certification requirements. Professor Darling-Hammond called the Abell Foundation's report a "stunning exercise in misrepresentation."

Site Links Home Search for ERIC Digests Privacy Policy Resources for Library Instruction ... Information Literacy Blog ERIC Identifier: Publication Date: Author: Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Teacher Education Washington DC. Alternative Certification for Teachers. ERIC Digest 1, 1986. Teacher shortages and public discussion about the quality of teacher education have been catalysts for the implementation of alternative routes to teacher certification for several states. Alternative certification is defined by specific state programs. While it is too early to know the results of such programs, evaluation questions can be framed. WHAT IS ALTERNATIVE CERTIFICATION FOR TEACHERS? Teacher certification, in general, is a process designed to ensure that individuals who enter teaching meet minimum standards for competence (Koff, Florio, and Cronin, 1976). These minimum standards for initial entry are set by each state; the National Association of State Directors of Teacher Education and Certification produces a manual containing these certification requirements. Typically, these requirements include specific numbers of undergraduate credit hours from institutions of higher education in subject matter (such as math and English), in professional studies (such as child development and teaching methods), and in student teaching. Universities and colleges "certify" that their graduates have met these minimum credit hour standards as part of the state teacher licensure process. In some states, certificates are issued at graduation; in others, certificates are issued after a probationary teaching period.

Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Languages and Linguistics Washington DC. Foreign Language Teacher Certification. ERIC Digest. Typically, beginning foreign language (FL) teachers in the United States must complete an "approved program" of teacher education in a four-year college or university, have a certain minimum grade point average, and complete a specified number of credit hours in the foreign language to be certified. To receive "approved program" status, institutions must demonstrate to their state department of education that they are fulfilling state standards. Most states model their standards after two statements developed by the FL teaching profession in the 1950s and '60s titled, QUALIFICATIONS FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHERS OF MODERN FOREIGN LANGUAGES and GUIDELINES FOR TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAMS IN MODERN FOREIGN LANGUAGES (Paquette 1966). The QUALIFICATIONS are brief descriptions of "minimal," "good," and "superior" competence in listening comprehension, speaking, reading, writing, applied linguistics, culture and civilization, and pedagogy. The GUIDELINES describe model programs, using the QUALIFICATIONS as minimum objectives (Wing 1984).
