Overview
This bill allows New Jersey teachers with valid teaching certificates from other states to potentially receive a New Jersey certificate of eligibility or certificate of eligibility with advanced standing. To qualify, teachers must hold a comparable out-of-state certificate, have recent teaching experience in that state, and meet certain requirements like submitting letters of recommendation and passing a criminal background check. The State Board of Education will create rules to implement this process.
