Educator Relicensure
Teaching and Administrator Licenses & Renewals
-
Charter School Teachers
All teachers must have a valid, current Minnesota license in order to teach in a Minnesota charter school. Every teacher is responsible to maintain and renew his/her professional license according to state rules and submit their renewal hours to a relicensure committee for approval. The Committee only reviews/approves hours for Tier 3 & 4 licenses. -
Charter School Administrators
MN charter school administrators are not required to hold an administrative license. However, an individual with an administrator license is responsible for renew her/his professional license every five years with clock hours pre-approved by the MN Board of School Administrators.
Personnel of all MN charter schools and authorizing institutions can access the services of the Association's Relicensure Committee.
