I have taken, and passed, the Basic Skills test or subject-area test(s). How long are the test results valid?
Once the entire Basic Skills test (mathematics, reading, and writing) is passed, an individual will never have to take it again to qualify for the issuance or renewal of any Michigan teaching certification in the future. A passing score on a subject-area test will remain valid for a period of five (5) years. After five years have elapsed and if a certificate or endorsement has not yet been issued, a teacher candidate for certification will be required to retake the test until a passing score is achieved.
