Student and School Services Divisions Divisions Certification and Accreditation Overview The Division of Certification and Accreditation was created in 1970. This division certifies teachers and other professional personnel; oversees the preparation and assessment of candidates for principalship; and approves the educational programs of nonpublic schools. Under the division are three branches: Certification, Nonpublic School Approval, and Program Approval and Assessment. In Focus Continuing Professional Development All professional, certified educators must pursue professional development, have individualized professional development plans throughout their careers, and complete at least six hours of course credits during each five year certification renewal cycle. The Professional Standards and Teacher Education Board originated in 1971 as an advisory board established by the State Board of Education. It was authorized by statute in 1991 (Chapter 662, Acts of 1991). With the State Board of Education, the Professional Standards and Teacher Education Board sets the standards and regulations by which teachers and other professionals are prepared and licensed for Maryland public schools. The board's twenty-five members are appointed to three-year terms by the Governor with Senate advice and consent (Code Education Article, §6-701 through §6-708). Certification Branch The Certification Branch was formed in 1981. The branch certifies teachers, specialists and administrators employed in public and private schools, other state institutions and the general public.

Offerings vary from citation and certificate programs to double majors and fast track Bachelor's/Master's programs.
