Certification Guideline 26

SUBJECT
Return to Wisconsin Technical College System (WTCS) Employment During Certification Renewal Period

GUIDELINE DEFINITION
An instructor who returns to employment in a position requiring the same type of certification during the renewal period will receive the same expiration date as originally granted.

EXAMPLE
Bob was granted Part-Time Approval for course 10-607-112 when hired on January 10, 2002, with an expiration date of 8-31-05. Bob did not teach again for the district until he was again employed in January 2005, for a different course. His expiration date will remain 8-31-05.

EXAMPLE
Candy is employed by District A, and holds a Five-Year certificate as a teacher with an expiration date of August 31, 2002. Candy leaves District A to become employed as a teacher by District B on May 12, 2001. Her expiration date will continue to be August 31, 2002.

RATIONALE
Staff received WTCS certification for a specific period of time. A change in employment, including movement between districts, does not change the expiration date and the renewal requirements of the individual.
