HSB 632: HSB 632

What it does

This bill relates to licenses issued by the board of educational examiners. Current law authorizes the board of educational examiners to issue a regional exchange teaching license to an applicant who has completed a teacher preparation program outside of the state and who is applying for the applicant’s first Iowa teaching license if, among other requirements, the applicant is a resident of the state. The bill removes the requirement that such an applicant be a resident of this state if the applicant provides the board with a copy of an offer of employment as a teacher from a school located in this state.
