Licensure

New!

• Beginning July 1, 2009, all individuals who are finalists for a teaching position in Indiana must obtain an "Expanded Criminal History Check" (ECH). Please visit http://www.doe.in.gov/dps/welcome.html and click "Expanded Criminal Checks Memo" and "Expanded Criminal History FAQ" for additional information.
  

There are three Indiana professional educator licenses:  Instructional, School Services Personnel, and Administrator.  All three bear the appropriate signatures, seals, issue and expiration dates, license number, etc., and the type of license: Initial, Proficient Practitioner, and Accomplished Practitioner.
The licenses reflect the standards for which the educator has demonstrated competence and completion of a teacher education program. The license lists the school setting(s) and content area(s) for which the educator has demonstrated proficiency.
