Summary

Existing law requires the Commission on Teacher Credentialing to, among other duties, establish standards for the issuance and renewal of credentials, certificates, and permits. Existing law requires the commission to issue a clear multiple subject, single subject, or education specialist teaching credential to an out-of-state applicant who satisfies specified requirements, including documenting, in a manner prescribed by the commission, that he or she has completed 150 clock hours of activities that contribute to his or her competence, performance, and effectiveness in the education profession, or that he or she has earned a master's degree or higher in a field related to the credential, or the equivalent semester units, from a regionally accredited institution of higher education. This bill would eliminate that requirement as a condition for an out-of-state applicant to be issued a clear multiple subject, single subject, or education specialist teaching credential.
