Q & A
Q - What do the certificate acronyms stand for?
A - The A, B, C certificates are Traditional Certificates. The Level 1, 2, and 3 replaced them several years ago, so they are older versions.
There are AN's which are Ancillary Certificates. These are considered stand alone certificates and they are not traditional.
The TA's are Teaching Authorizations and they are not a type of certification. These are issued to mainly substitute teachers who do not hold teacher certification and basically a way of saying their background checks have been cleared to work as a substitute.
OS are Out of State teaching certificates so they are traditional.
RA is for Resident Teachers who working toward certification as either interns or student teachers.
CTTIE is a stand alone certificate for instructors trained to teach in Career, Technical Trade & Industrial areas.
EDL's are leadership certificates and are issued to Principals and Asst. Principals.
