What’s in it
This bill establishes a teacher license reciprocity task force. The bill requires the board of educational examiners (BOEE) to convene the teacher license reciprocity task force. The bill requires the task force to review the requirements that apply to out-of-state teachers who would like to be licensed to teach in Iowa, conduct a study of practitioner preparation programs in neighboring states to determine how those practitioner preparation programs compare to such programs offered in the state, and conduct a study of how to improve the process of allowing out-of-state teachers to teach in Iowa.
Read the full explanation
The bill requires the BOEE to appoint the members of the task force, which are to include teachers, administrators of school districts, and any other members appointed by the BOEE. The bill requires the BOEE to provide staff assistance and administrative support to the task force, and requires the BOEE to submit its findings and recommendations in a report to the general assembly by December 31, 2022.
