What state requirements does a teacher in Idaho need to meet for renewal?

All Professional Learning Board courses include a free PD Tracker.

Educators must complete six (6) semester credits of professional development within the validity period indicated on the certificate for renewal. At least three of those credits must be on transcripts per the renewal application form. The following types of semester credits are listed as appropriate: 
  • educationally related to the individualized professional learning plan (IPLP) or related to the professional practice of the applicant
  • tied to content areas and/or an area of any other endorsement
  • specific to pedagogical best practices or for administrative/teacher leadership
  • tied to a specific area of need designated by district administration

A maximum of three in-service credits may be applied toward the renewal of a teacher’s credential. 15 clock hours of formal instruction = 1 in-service credit. 5 hour trainings can be combined in order to reach the minimum of 15 clock hours required to equal one renewal credit.

The Idaho District In-service form must be completed by the proper official at an Idaho district/charter school/private school for the in-service to count toward certificate renewal.
