Certificate
expire in 2008? Renew now!
If your certificate expires in 2008,
consider applying now to avoid the peak processing season this
summer. By completing your renewal application early, you avoid
the rush of last-minute applications prior to July 1 and ensure
a quicker turn-around time.
The Department of Education encourages educators to apply
through the online certification system if possible. The system
is located at
http://doe.sd.gov/oatq/teachercert/index.asp and is
available 24/7. Please note that some individuals will be
required to submit a paper application because of their
certificate type. The system will notify you if your certificate
fits this description.
By using the online certification system, applicants can check
the status of both online and paper copy applications. Follow
these simple steps to check the status of your application:
-
Go to
http://doe.sd.gov/oatq/teachercert/index.asp
-
Select which application you want to
check: Initial, Renewal, or Additional Authorization
-
Select the Check Status button
-
Enter your social security number and
answer a security question. You will be able to view the
status of your application, including any missing documents
or pending actions.
If you have questions about the process,
please e-mail us at
certification@state.sd.us.
