I got hired for a position in which I am not certified to teach. How does the teaching permit work?
First of all, a permit or an out-of-field authorization is issued for one school year only; expiring June 30 each year. Requirements for the permit: (1) signed commitment to Cabell County Schools to complete the required courses for the endorsement area(s); (2) completion of at least six required semester hours of credit with a minimum 3.0 GPA each year to renew the permit or out-of-field authorization; (3) and satisfy all course and testing requirements for the professional license in the specialization area within five years from the date of issuance of the original permit. The individual is responsible for meeting the requirements to renew the permit or out-of-field authorization each school year until completion within five years.
