LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 1876, Seyarto.
Substitute teachers: emergency career substitute teaching permit: employment verification.
Existing law requires the Commission on Teacher Credentialing to, among other duties, establish standards for the issuance and renewal of credentials, certificates, and permits. Existing law authorizes the commission to issue or renew emergency teaching or specialist permits in accordance with specified regulations adopted by the commission.
A regulation adopted by the commission establishes requirements relating to the initial issuance of an emergency career substitute teaching permit, including, among others, a requirement for verification by one or more employers of, in the 3 years immediately preceding the date of application, 3 consecutive years of at least 90 days per year of day-to-day substitute teaching in either the school district requesting the permit or, if the county office of education is responsible for the assignment of
day-to-day substitutes for all the school districts in the county, accumulated from one or more California school districts in the county requesting the permit.
This bill would require the commission to accept, as an alternative to that verification requirement, verification by an employer or employers of, in the 3 years immediately preceding the date of application, 3 consecutive years of at least 90 days per year of day-to-day substitute teaching accumulated from one or more California school districts participating in a consortium with the school district requesting the permit.
