FOREWORD

This 1961 Certificatioa Bulletin presents all the informatioa that relates to obtaining Georgia teaching or administrati~e certificates. We hope that it will be helpful to school administrators in ~terYiewing'and guidiog teachers who apply f positioos who are already teachin, in their schoois.

Gegia has . .de. ttemendous progress in teacher educatioa. Many people ha~e worked hard to
achie~e this JWogress. Teachers. themsel~es .ha~e sho~ great interest in continuing their educa-
tioa and upgradiog their certificates. Superintendents ha~e given real leadership .in many ways to . the improvement of teacher educatioa. The colleges ha~e c~perated in working out effecti:ve pro,mm.. The Teacher Educatioo Council has offered new ideas and sound recomm~ndations in many phases oE" our te.cher education program. Local boards ha~e often gi~eD encouragement
financially and otherwise. The Siate Board of Education has taken a cootiouing interest in the program and ~t into effect policies that have made possible real p~gress toward the goal of
getting me professionally qualified teachers f the classrooms of Georgia.

The staff of the Department of Educe.tion has recop.ized that teacher education is a matter of
coacem f all, and not simply a responsibility of the Certificatioo Office. They have wked steadily topther, making tbeir ~g conuibutiona to teacher educatiOll, in worbhops, conferences. da~-to-day conferences and coosultatioos with teachers and administrators.

The SUllllDer grants f study, the National Teacher Enminauon, aDQ me new s1Xtb-year certificate have all been inftluable, we believe, in helping teachers to qualify themselves for. the kind of creati~e teachinS that modem educatiOn demands.

No school can be better thaD its teachers. The future depends in large measure on whether we c!Ul pro~ide quality education f the citizens of a democracy: so that our country. can continue its position of ~ttoog world leadership. We can' pro~ide quality education if -.e. have profess.ionally qualified teachers. Our certification serYice is designed to pro~ide J{Uidance and ~~cognition in
this area.

l'his balletin explains exactly how this is done. I hope that you will find this inf~tion helpful,

aDd that we may ha~e more aDd more excellent teacherS and first-rate administiawrs in ~e schools

PART I
GENERAL INF'OlUlATION A~D REGULAnONS

SHORT IUSTORY OF TEAcHER CERTIFICAnON 1858 -1960

In the school laws of 1858 was found the first' pradsioa requirinJ certificates ~f all teachers
receiving funds from the state. Certificates of qaallficadoas to teach and of good moral character were issued by a Board of, Examiners in e~ch cooaty. This Board was authorized to give certificates required by the law to applicants who prond ~atisfactorily their competency to teach the elementary branches.

On October 13, 1870, an act was appro~ed which provided for the offices of state and cooaey sch~l commissioaers, (now state and c~ty 'superintendelits) aod ,for the s~te aod county boards
of educatioa. The euDai.ning IIOd the licensiDS of teachers were' made the dudes of the Cominissioaer and the Board of Educa~on of each county.

The laws govenung the eumination of teachers remained oachanged oatil 1887 - 1& period of

seventeen years. The law then provided that the examinatioa quesdoas for a county license

thereafter were to be prepared by the State School Commissioiler aod that they must include questions oa th~ t'~cience and practice of teaching. tt In the same yeu~ the isswuice of a perma-

nent state license by c&e State School CommiSlrioaer was authorized. In the beg~DD~g this eumiDatioa co.vered only elem~tary subjects, but in 1910, the plan included a new state certificate for

high school teachers.

'

In ~92~ a general cer~catioo plan WDS rrviud with strict~r standards for the issuance of
licenses aod certificates~ A cle&r-cut' distinction was made in a 'county license iss,:,cd by the'
Couoty School SuperintendeDt and the certificate issued by the State $chool Superintendent. The
license was still issued on the basis of an exami.natioo, but the State Professioaal Certificate was issued ..after the applicaot has completed die regulai hi;h 'school course, and a1sq not less ~ tWo years of college or normal school work with at least 18 semester ho~s in education as
sp~cified.tt

It was not oatil September of 1924' that the Division of Certification was set up. For;,thia reasoa; we have ,DO records prior to that date. It was then that a basic plan for certificatioa on the basis of standard college credit was set up which, with alteradoos, is' s~ in eff.ect.. :The oae requirement that has remained oachanged from 1924 to the present date is. the minimum ~~~eDt of 18 semester hours in. professioaal 'education. ,Subject . .ner requirements haye been inCreased from a ,minimum ,of 12 semester hours to a minimum average of 27 semester hours ~ establish a teaching field.
/'
In 1937 the sylStem 'of certificatioa became ,the basis for a state salary schedule. The state ~er tificate and apprond full-time teaching are still the .~e$ for the state salary.

A far-reaching change in certi'ficatioa came in 1943 when the State Board of Educatioa authorized the issuaoce of graduate certificates to individuals wh~ compJeted. an appcoved program for service as a master teacher, a system superintendent, a supervising principal, or a lIUpervisor of instrucdoa.
In June of 1945 the State Board .of Education authorized the development of a graduateprogram,
similar .in pattern to other graduate progrBmS, for, the Viaitiog Teach~.r'. Professional FiTe-year CertifiCate. It was in 1948 that a program for the School Cooaseloi:'. ProfeSlllional Fiye-year Certifica,te was initiated, thus bringing the . ~ta1, professional !l~dership certificates to five.

3

As of September I, 1947, a State Board of Education rep1ad~ became effective, requirin, that

the principal of a school of fiTe Or more teachers must hold at least the Principal's ProTisional
(Poo4) Certificate in order to be eli,fble for the, minimum salary supplement. This ~pplied to

be,imliq ptincipals and to those principals who did not.receIve the principal's supplement in

1946-47.

'

A major chaoBt! 'in certification came with the advent of the Minimum Fouodation Law in 1949.

Section 5 of this law includes the folln!'in,: "No teacher, principal, superTisor, or superin-

tendent other than County School Superintendents, ,hall be employed in the public schools wess such person shall ,hold a certificate fr~ the State Board of Education, certifyin, to his or her

qualifications .. such teacher, principal, or superiDtendent, pursuaot to the rules d r~tions

L.- of ~e Sca.te Board."

UDder ,this law, the Teac:her's Profe"loaal :Foar-year (T-4) CeitHic:ate became the standard cre-
dential for teae:hio, in the public: sc:hools of GecxJia. To quaUfy for this c:ertific:ate, one must
haTe c:ompleted ali appnJTed foar-year 'auric:ulum desiped for a spec:ific:' sc:hool'semc:e, or teac:hin, , field aod be reC:OIDIIleoded by the c:olle,e in ."bich the crainin, w.. completed and 'the deBtee' c:onferred.

'l/( It is sipific:aot that thiS' law plac:es' full re

authority for c:ertification with the Stat~ Board

'It ,was, in 1949 that the Scate Board of Edoc:auuo authorized me cleTelopment of proBflUllS for re1ilrded- c:hildren. We now haTe proJDUU in the followin, areas of ezc:eptioaallty: Speech Correc:doa, Educ:able Mental:ly Re,~ed, 'Iaainable Mental.1f Retarded, Multi-haodic:apped, Hospital and Home IDstruc:tioa, aDd Viswilly IJDpaired. The board has recendy approTed pilot propams for ac:ademic:ally talented c:hildren in teo' public sehool systems (one in eac:h c:on,ressi~l district).
Aaother sipific:aot step in c:ertification c:ame in Dec:eaber of 1959, when the Scate Board of Education au~ed the issuaoc:e of' c:ertificates to teac:hen and sc:hool leadtn at the sb:th-year leTeL These c:ertific:ates, ...ed on a ~um of 45 quarter hoars pdaate credit beyond the aaster's de,ree, are issued oa the ...is of plaaoed propams desiped for,a spec:ific: serTic:e. Mach ine-est aDd enthus1aam haTe beea TOic:ed in these propaIU.

To SUIIlIIIarize, c:ertification bec:ame a state func:tion in 1924. When the SeTen Moaths' School
Law, paraoteein, eac:h c:hild a miai.mum school term of seTeD mdotha, went into effec:t in 1937, certification bec:a.e the "sis of m~ scate salarY sc:hedule. ID 1940 practice teachin, was required for the first time for the professional c:ertificate at either the elementary or: bi,h school leTe!.' Spec:ial' pdaate propams for sc:hoolleaden were a~ed in 190. A broa~ sweepin, c:baoJe came wim the advent of 'the Minimum Fouodation Schoal Law in 1949 aDd a c:hallen,in,
c:hao,e in 1960 with the issuaoc:e of c:ertific:ates at the sb:da-year leTel. ,

RECENT CHANGES MADE IN CERTIFICATION By Actioo of State Board of Educatioo 00 December 19, 196.,..1)
Beginning with the school year 1961-62, the five-year leadership certificates (supenutendent, principal, curricul~ director, visiting teacher, school counselor) have the followino requirements:
Prerequisites:
1. EliQibility for the Teacher's Professional Four-year (T-4) Certificate.
2. Three to five years experience (varies with certificate).
Requiremeots fex IssWlllce:
" Completion at an accredited QMduate school of a master'l:l deoree program approved by the State Deparbnent of Education and the recommendation of the training institution.
The deoree program will include a minimum of 45 quarter hours, distributed as follows:
1. 15 Human Growth & Development, Educational Psycholoqy, Socioloqy, Curriculum, Methods or Probl~ms of Teachino
2. 5-10 Research
3~ 25 Field of Specialization (Administration, VisitinQ Teacher, etc.)
8eQinnino with the school year 1961-62, the state salary schedule will be chanoed so that the salary of superintendents, prindpals, curriculum directors, visitinQ teachers, and school counselors will be paid on the basis of the leadership certificate held.
8eQinninQ with the school year 196~-62, persons who have reached age 60 will not be required to do additional work in order to keep a certificate in force.
8eQinnino with the school year 1960-61, a classroom teacher holding a professional "certificate, who has, as of June, 1961, tauQht ten years the major portion of his teaching load in a teachinQ field other than that of his certifioote may, upon application which includes a complete record of the teaching experience and verification of such experience by the superintendent's recommendation, be allowed to continue teachinQ in" this "field without penalty in salary. The record of teaching load must show diversification in the field of teachinQ experience in which he does not have certification so that understandinQ at an advanced level and in the several areas of the field may be verified.
8eQ1nninQ with the school year 1961-62, a person preparino for "professional certification who has not had practice teachinQ but who has had five years teachinQ experience will not be required to do either practice teachinQ or the workshop in lieu of practice teachino in order to secure a certificate. He will be required to have the minimum number of hours (18 semester hours or 30 quarter hours) in education distributed in areas reu>mmended in the proelisional sequence in the State Certification Bulletin.
BeQinninQ with the school year 1961-62, persons who hold a provisional certificate to teach in high school and who have tauQht one year, but who did not have practice teachinq, will be allowed to take two courses in education instead of the workshop in lieu of practice teaching. Such ~rsons will be required to have the minimum number of hours (18 semester hours or 30 quarter hours) in education distributed in areas recommended in the professional
Sequence in the State Certification Bulletin. Elementary teachers will be required to take the workshop in lieu of
practice teaching.

THE PLANNED PROGRAM FOR CERTIFICATION

The following plan for strengthening teacher-training programs in Georgia colleges was (approved by the State Board of Education, February 20, 1948:

"Effective for individuals who complete their traininq after September 1, 1950, the professional certificate will be based upon completion of a planned professional curriculum, four years in length, which has beep approved in advance by the State Board of Education. Each training program must have been designed to prepare for a specific teaching field or school service and the student must have received the bachelor's degree. Responsibility for admitting the individual to training, guiding him throuqh the program and for recommending him for the professional certificate will lie with the Dean of the College of Education or the Director of the Division of Teacher Education in the institution offering the training."
This planned program concept has since been extended to cover preparation at the fIfth- and ~ixth-year college levels for teacher and leadership certification. Therefore, those preparing to serve in the schools of Georgia should affiliate themselves with approved institutions to hcrle their programs planneli for certification.

Programs may vary with different institutions, but all approved programs include minimum requuements. In planning programs for certification, college officials do not follow the standards outlined in this bulletin, but require students to complete the institution's approved program.

In making application for certification based on an approved. proqram, the student will be provided with the standard application form IC-I0 at the college and will be instructed on the procedure to follow. )Jpon receipt of an official transcript of the student's record and the application which has been signed by acim1""nistrative authorities of the college recommending' profeSSional certification, Teacher Certification Service will istf'ue the certificate.

(A list of institutions and their approved programs appear elsewhere in this bulletin and a revised list will be

available each year.)

o'

,
Applicants who for some reason have not completed a planned program or who have studied at non-Georgia colleges

will have their credits evaluated by Teacher Certification Service in terms of the requirements outlined in this

bulletin.. (See page 10 for information on Reciprocity.) I

~L~G FOR SIX-YEAR CERTIFICATION. (Revised May 1962)

The State Board of Education authorized the issuance of certificates based on six years of college to begin as of

July 1, 1960. The holder of such a certificate is considered a specialist in the area in which he has six-year certi-

~~

.

The first prereClUisite for a six-year certificate is eligibility for a five-year certificate in the same teaching field or lecrlersllip area.
To qualify for the first six-year certificate, the standard procedure is to complete a planned program at an approved institution. In Georgia, the official of a graduate i1?stitution offering an approved six-year' program is responsible for
I
7

planning the course of study and recommending the applicant for certification. In cases where the six-year program is to be taken out-of-state, the student should determine that the college has an acceptable program, and submit the' .proposed course of study in advance to Teacher Certification Service for approval. Completed programs from out-ofstate institutions will be evaluated according to the requirements outlined in this bulletin.
Until June I, 1964, Teacher Certification Service has been authorized to plan six-year programs for those persons who had earned before June 1960, at least 30 quarter hours ofacceptable graduate work beyond the master's degre. and the first professional graduate certificate. This prolJIam must be completed no later than September 1966, and must be equivalent in all respects to a college-planned, six-year program. In general, this means that Teacher Certification Service may require acceptable courses and grades from approved graduate schools.
Since Teacher Certification Service will not plan any six-year programs after June 1, 1964, a college-planned program and the recommendation of an authorized college official will be required after that date.
PROCEDURE FOR MAKING APPLICATION
All teaching. and leadership personnel in the public schools of Georgia should hold a valid Georgia certificate for the field or fields in which they are serving. It is their personal responsibility to apply for their own certificates.
Formal application must be made on form IC-I0 for any type of certificate, including renewal, reinstatement, duplicate, change of name*, or addition of new fields. (A letter will not suffice.) An applicant may apply for all types of certificates and fields on this one form (IC-lO).
The application form, IC-lO, revised 1962, may be secured from the offices of superintendents in county or independent school systems, the Department of Education in Georgia colleges or universities, or from Teacher Certification Service, State Office Building, Atlanta 3, Georgia. .
Detailed instructions on the application form should be followed carefully. All information requested should be
given even though it may have been given on a previous application. Failure to give complete and accurate information may cause delay in processing the application and in issuing the certificate. The applicant is responsible for requesting the re9.istrar of each in.stitution attended to send an official transcript.to Teacher Certification Service, State Office Building, Atlanta 3, Georgia.
An application is not considered complete until all transcripts are on file. Transcripts on which certificates are based become the property of the State Department of Education and must remain on file in Teacher Certification Service. (Copies of transcripts may not be provided due to lack of duplicating facilities.)
In general, it is recommended that application for certification not be made until the applicant expects to make use of the certificate. Even though the holder may not serve on his certificate, the validity dates remain effective.
NO FEE IS CHARGED FOR CERTIFICAnON IN GEORGIA.
* If an individual holding a certificate marries or changes his or her name, it is extremely important that the
individual apply immediately on the regular form IC -10 for change-of-name on his certificate and records in Teacher Certification Service.

ACCREDITATION -OF COLL-- EGES AND INSTITUTIONS - (Revised May 1962)
To be accepted for certification, college credits and degrees must be earned at institutions accredited by at least one of the following agencies: "the regional accrediting association, the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE), or the State department of education in the state where the institution is located. (See Reciprocity, page la.)
-VA-L-I-DATION OF CR-E-D-I-TS-
(Revised May 1962)
To be accepted toward certification in the State of Georgia, degrees and credits from unaccredited institutions must be validated.

RECIPROCllY (Revised May 1962)
According to the policy adopted by the State Board of Education on August 18, 19SA, the State Department of Education is empowered to grant Georgia teachers' certificates to applicants from other states who are graduates of colleges or universities accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) upon the following conditions:
(l) A Georgia teacher's certificate will be granted in that teaching area for which said applicant is recommended by the institution and supported by the transcript provided a "C" average was maintained in the teaching field and grades of "C" or better in each of the required courses in the professional education sequence;
(2) The college or university from which said applicant was graduated must have been fully accredited by NCATE at the time of the applic,ant's graduation;
(3) Said applicant must have been graduated from the'teacher-education program regularly approved by NCATE for his or her said institution, and
(4) This res91ution shall apply to classroom teachers only.
Reciprocity is practiced only for teacher certification at the undergraduate level.
REVOKING CERTIFICATES
The State Board of Education has ruled that the State Superintendent of Schools and the Director of the Division of Teacher Education and Certification shall have authority and it shall be their duty to revoke teaching certificates granted by them or by their predecessors for incompetency, immorality, crime, or conviction of a misdemeanor involving embezzlement of funds; and the revocation of the certificate of any teacher shall terminate the contract of said teacher with any school in which he may have been employed to teach. Any teacher so dismissed shall have the right of appeal to the State Board of Education.
This regulation was later amended to provide for the immediate revocation of certificates of all teachers, principa:"" superintendents or anyone else connected with the Georgia school program to whom a certificate may have been issued; that said certificate or certificates be immediately revoked whenever the holder thereof has been found guilty of misappropriation of school funds or has pled guilty of said charge or charges or anyone who may have committed or in the future does commit any crime involving moral turpitude or malfeasance in office.
CORRECTIONS ON CERTIFICATES (Added to Bulletin May 1962)
Since the State salary is based on the certificate held, it is important that it be correct. When a new certificate is received, it should be examined' carefully. If there appears to be any error, the certificate should be returned within 10 days with a letter of explanation.
At any time that an error is detected on a certificate, it is the holder's responsibility to return it for correction. If Teacher Certification Service discovers an error, measures will be taken to make the necessary correction.
After an error is discovered, correction to improve certification may not be extended back more than one year. Correction that lowers or reduces certification may not be delayed beyond the school year in which the error is detected.
10

DATING OF CERTIFICATES

e

In general, certificates are dated from july l, the beginning of the fiscal year. The requirements for certificates with this beginning validity date must be completed by September 1 or the date on which the applicant begins serving in that school year.
Effective July I, 1961, certificates based on requirements completed after September 1 will be dated from the.date during the school year when the requirements were completed, provided credit was earned in accord with certification regulations. (See In-Service Credit, page 12.)

STUDY FOR RENEWAL, REINSTATEMENT, AND REMOVAL OF THE EMERGENCY FACTOR

It is the responsibility of the individual holder of a certificate to keep it in force. For this reason, attention s.hould be given to expiration dates on certificates, conditions for renewal, and regulations pertaining to inservice study.
The standard requirement for renewal, reiCistatement, or removal of the emergency factor from a teacher's certificate is credit for 10 quarter hours.
On July 14, 1958, the State Board of Education ruled that subject matter or content courses will be required for the purpose of renewing or reinstating professional certificates based on four or more years of college work, "providing this regulation shall be amenable to the course requirements prescribed by colleges for master degree programs."
Renewal: It is necessary to renew an expiring certificate or one that has been invalid for less than five years. Renewal credit may be earned in residence, by correspondence, or through extension.
Reinstatement: It is necessary to reinstate a certificate that has been invalid for five or more years. Reinstatement credit must be resident and may not be correspondence or extension credit.
Removal of the EmerBea"cy Factor: It is necessary to remove the emergency factor from a certificate by earning renewal or reinstatement credit, or credit identified as "recent study", depending on the situation. If the emergency certificate was issued because renewal credit was not earned, the emergency factor may be removed with resident, correspondence, or extension
credit, provided the original ~rtificate does not remain invalid five or more years. If the emergency certificate waG issued because reinstatement credit was not earned, the emergency factor may be removed with resident credit only.
If the applicant for a first Georgia certificate has not earned credit for two courses or taught on a valid certificate in another state within five years prior to date of application, he may obtain an emergency certificate of the type for which he qualified. To remove the emergency factor in this case, resident credit will be required for the "recent study". (See Emergency Certificates, puge 28.)
RENEWAL ON AGE FACTOR

On December 19, 1960, the State Board of Education passed the following regulation: "Beginning with the school year 1961-1962, persons who have reached the age 60 will not be required to do additional work in order to keep a certificate in force." Formal application must be made for the renewal.
11

OTIlER METHODS FOR RENEWAL OF PROFESSIONAL FOUR-, FIVE-, AND SIX-YEAR CERTIFICA1ES
In addition to earning credit for two courses (10 quarter hours), other means have been established for renewing professional certificates based on four, five, and six years of college training. (These methods are not approved for reinstatement.)
In 1956, the State Board of Education authorized the issuance of life certificates again. This measure greatly reduced the need for renewing professioncil certificates, since the majority of them became life certificates. However, in cases where renewal is required, the following methods are approved:
1. Planned Educational Travel 2. Teaching on the Colleqe Level 3. Exchange Teaching 4. Short Courses and Specialized Workshops 5. Special Work Committees Sponsored by the State Board of Education 6. Action Research Projects Resulting in Improved School Practices
Detailed information concerning other methods for renewal may be obtained from the Office of In-service Teacher Education, State Office Building, Atlanta 3, Georgia.
Plans for renewal by any of the above methods must be approved in advance by Teacher Certification Service.
IN - SERVICE CREDIT
Beqinning with the 1959-60 school year, the amount of credit that may be accepted by Teacher Certification Service from a full-time, in-service teacher is limited as follows:
(a) Credit may be accepted fo~ a maximum of 15 quarter hours or 9 semester hours earned from September 1 to June 1. The credit may be earned at the rate of 5 quarter hours ;ler quarter. Credit in semester hours may be earned at the rate of 6 semester hours in one semester and 3 semester hours in the other semester.
(b) Credit may be accepted for a maximum of 10 quarter hours or 6 semester hours earned in a six-weeks' session of summer school or a total of 20 quarter hours or 12 semester hours for a full summer session.
(c) Credit for a maximum of 35 quarter hours or 21 semester hours may be accepted from the full-time, in-service teacher from September 1 to September I, provided it is earned within the limits specified in (a) and (b).
Penalty for earning excess credit: Any full-time teacher who earns excess credit in wo~g tQw(IrJi q higJ'ter certificate will have that certificate withheld for one quarter for each five-quarter-hour course earned in excess of the State Board of Education's limit.
12

EXPERIENCE RECOGNIZED IN CERTIFICATION (Revised May 1962)

The application for certification includes sectior.s for reporting teaching and non-teaching experience recognized for certification PW'POses. Teaching experience must be verified by a superintendent who should obtain from the applicant such evidence as may be required to substantiate any experience claimed. In general, the superintendent'.: signature is accepted for verification of all experience. If there appears to De any inegu1arity, Teacher Certification Service may request the applicant to submit additional records to the superintendent or to Teacher Certification Service. (Detailed instructions for reporting experience are outlined on the application form.)

The standard unit of experience for teachers and school leaders is full-time employment for a regular school term.
Not more than one year of experience may re credited for a twelve-month period. Credit for one year of experience
may he allowed on any of the following:

PART n
CERTIPICATION FOR TEACHERS IN ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS

CERTIFICATES FOR TEACHING

On July 14, 1958, the State Board of Education ruled: "Beginning in September, 1960, the State Department of Education will not issue a teaching certifi~e to any beginning teacher with less than four years of college work."
On March 16, 1960, it was further ruled that as of the 1960-61 schQoI year, beginning teachers could be issued provisional certificates based on bachelor's or master's d~s, "pro~iding the college training establishes a teaching field in confonnity WIth present-day certification requlations in Georgia. No type certificate (including
emergency) will be issued to individuals who have not established a teaching field." (See page 21 for Teaching Field Requirements.)

Beginning with cEHtificates valid ftom July 1, 1960, individuals who have not previously had a Georgia certificate and who do not have at least a year of teaching eXperience must meet current requirements to obtain their first certificate in this state.

The standard certificate for teaching in the State of Georgia is based on the bachelor's degree including or supplemented by minimum professional requirements. This is referred to as the Teacher's ProfeSSional Four-year Certificate. Provisional certification for teaching is available based on the bachelor's or master's degree. Professional certification for teaching is available baced on the planned bachelor's degree, master's degree, or sixyear program. (See page 27, Certification Below the Degree Level.)

Within five years preceding date of application for a first Georgia certificate, the applicant must either have earned credit for two college courses or have tauqht on a valid certificate in another state. If he qualifies for some type of certificate but does not meet either of these requirements, Teacher Certification Service may issue an emergency certificate of the same type on the written request of the employinq Georgia superintendent. (Also see Emergency Certificates, paqe 28.)

Professional training to teach is a combination of general education, a teaching field or fields, and the professional education sequence.

For those graduates since 1950, who for some reason did not follow an approved program, Teacher Certification Service uses the following criteria for evalua4ng the qualifications of applicants for the Teacher's Professional Four-year (T-4) Certificate:

1. General Education: Approximately 60 quarter hours in the following: English, science, social studies, mathe~':1tics, and related subjects.

II. Teaching Field: Approximately the total quarter hours specified for the field in which certification is requested. (See Teaching Field Requirements, page 21.)

m.

Professional Education Sequence: Approximately 30 quarter hours in education co..ases

distributed in the areas specified. (See Professional Education Sequence, page 24.)

PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION SEQUENCE (Revised May 1962)
The professional education sequence refers to the education co~ses required for the Teacher's Professional Fouryear (T-4) Certificate. (See special instructions for certification to teach the deaf and hard of hearing. *) These courses may not be earned through correspondence or extension, but must carry resident credit. A grade of "C" or better is required on each course. Education courses earned after completion of degree requirements must be taken at an approved four-year, teacher-training institution.
This sequence must total approximatel, ~') quarter hours, distributed as follows:
a. 5 quarter hours in an introductory or orientation course designed to ucquaint the prospective teacher with the teaching profession ahd his own aptitudes, and to guide him in choosing a teaching field.
b. 5 quarter hours in a course designed to develop an understanding of the human growth and development of the school child through the study of such courses as educational psychology.
c. 5 quarter hours in a curriculum course designed to acquaint the prospective teacher with the public school curriculum on the level in which he plans to teach.
d. 5 quarter hours in a methods course designed to acquaint the prospective teacher with the teehniques of teaching and to develop competencies in the selection and use of materials in the field in which he plans to teach. (The methods course for certification to teach educable mentally retarded or crippled children must be in the specific field. )
e. 10 quarter hours in supervised student teaching on the level and in the field for which the prospective teacher's program was planned, the purpose of which is to give the student experience in typical school situations under supervision. (The supervised student teaching for the field of speech correction may be done in elementary education or speech correction; for educable mentally retarded must include work with normal and mentally retarded children; and for crippled children must include work with motor-handicapped children in the elementary school.)
NOTE: Practice teaching or an approved substitute has been required in the professional education sequence since September 1940. The only approved substitute for practice teaching has been a ten-quarter-hour, six-weeks summer workshop designed for this purpose and offered at the elementary and secondary levels. A year of teaching experience at the elementary or secondary level is a prerequisite for admittance to these workshops.
On December 19, 1960, the State Board of Education ruled that beginning with the 1961-62 year, it would be possible for further substitutions to be made in the professional sequence under certain conditions. To complete requirements for the first professional certificate on the secondary level (except for certification in vocational home economics or vocational agriculture for which student teaching is always required), an individual who has not had practice teaching, and who has a year or more of teaching experience, may substitute 10 quarter hours of approved work for the practice teaching or the workshop. This substitution is possIble at the elementary level only if the individual has five or more years of teaching experience.
It has been further ruled that to complete requirements for the first professional certificate for grades 7-8-9, or for grades 1-12 (except for certification to teach exceptional children for which student teaching is one of the requirements), an individual with one year of teaching experience may substitute 10 quarter hours of approved work for the supervised student teaching or the workshop.

EMERGENCY CERTIFICATES FOR TEACHING
A system superintendent may sometimes find it necessarY to fill a vacancy with a teacher who does not hold a valid certificate. The applicant may at one time have qualified for some type of teacher's certificate, but failed to obtain it or to keep it in force. In this case, an emergency certificate of the same type for which the applicant qualifies may be issued on the written request of the employing Georgia supe"rintendent. Emergency certificates are issued for teaching only, and are valid for one year.
On March 16, 1960, the State Board of Education ruled that, beginning with the 1960-61 school year, not more-than two emergency certificates may be issued to individuals with a minimum of a bachelor's degree, and not more than one to individuals with less than the bachelor's degree. (See Renewal, Reinstatement, and Removal of the Emergency Factor, page 11.)
PERMITS FOR TEACHING
If a superintendent has a vacancy for which he is unable to employ a teacher who is eligible for any type teaching certificate (including an emergency certificate), he may request in writing that Teacher Certification Service grant permission for the applicant to serve on a permit basis.
On March 16, 1960, the State Board of Education ruled that permits will not be approved after the 1962-63 school year. Until that time, local system superintendents will be notified each year regarding types of permits to be approved, the basis for approval, and provisions for payment to teachers permitted to serve without certificates.
On the employing Georgia superintendent's written request, Teacher Certification Service granted permission to him for applicants to serve in the 1960-61 year on the following basis:
Permit I (PM-I) will be issued to individuals .....ith a minimum of a high school diploma and no college credit.
Permit 2 (PM - 2) will be issued to individuals who have a high school diploma plus some cdllege credit, but less than one year of college credit.
Permit 3 (PM - 3) will be issued to individuals with one year or more of college credit, but with less than two years of college credit. This permit will also be issued to individuals who have more than two years of college credit, but with less than a "C" average.
Permit 4 (PM-4) will be issued to individuals with a minimum of two years of college credit with a "C" average, but with less than three years of college credit.
Permit 5 (PM-S) will be issued to individuals with at least three years of college credit with a
"c" average, but less than a bachelor's degree.
Permit 6 (PM-6) will be issued to individuals with a bachelor's degree, but with no established teaching field.
Permit 7 (PM -7) will be issued to individuals with a master's degree, but with no established teaching field.
When an individual has served on a permit basis and has acquired a year or more of teaching experience, he may obtain any certificate for which he might now or later qualify as an applicant with at least a year of teaching experience, provided he has earned credit for 10 quarter hours of additional college work.

ADDING FIELDS TO TEACHERS' CERTIFICATES . (Revised May 1962)

Regulations provide for adding new fields to teachers' professi'lnal certificates based on four, five, and six years

ADDmONAL CERTIFICATES AT TIlE FIVE-YEAR LEVEL (Revised May 19(2)

earn supplementary graduate credit. In "general, this credit m}Jst deal with the new area of specialization and should be
earned at a graduate school approved for this field of service.
For all professional five-year certificates, the standard requirement for the "c" area, the area of specialization, is now 25 quarter hours. For this reason, in planning for each additional five-year certificate, it is necessary to require 25 quarter hours of supplementary graduate credit unless the master's degree included applicable courses. In this case, a maximum of 10 quarter hours may be allowed from the master's degree PIOQMDl and 15 quarter hours of supplementary credit required.
To determine the requirements for additional certificates at the five-year level, an evaluation should be made by an approved graduate school or by Teacher Certification Service.

To obtain each additional six-year certificate, the individual must earn whatever supplementary graduate credit may be necessary to satisfy the area requirements for the new certiiic::ate, and must make the required score on the appropriate sections of the National Teacher Examination, if he has not already done so.
To determine what additional courSes may be required, an evaluation of the total graduate proQram that has already been completed should be made by an approved six-year institution or by Teacher Certification Service.

PART III
CERTIFIC.\TION FOR LEADERSHIP PERSONNEL IN EL~MENT ARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS

LEADERSHIP CERTIFICATES (Revised May 19(2)

Certificates for all fields of school service other than teaching are referred to as Leadership Certificates. These include certification for principals, superintendents, curriculum directors, visiting teachers, and school counselors. Tentative plans are being made to issue an Administrator's Certificate by the 1962 - 63 year.

Prov.isional and professional leadership certificates are based on graduate credit from approved institutions. The standard procedure for obtaining these certificates is to complete the planned program of graduate study outlined by the authorized college officials. Provisional leadership certification is issued on a minimum of 15 quarter hours of approved graduate study. Professional leadership certification at the five-year level is issued on a planned master's degree program. Provisional certification is not available at the six-year level. Professional six-year leadership certificates are issued on planned six-year programs of graduate study from approved institutions.

Those applicants who for some reason have not followed an approved college program for leadership certification

will have their credits evaluated by Teacher Certification Service according to the requirements outlined in this

bulletin.

.

In planning for leadership certification, it is important that the individual select and follow the appropriate program for the area of school service in which he expects to be employed. * It is also important to note any prerequisites and experience requirements for the particular area of certification.
On ..Ap~il~.3, 196?, the ~tate B<?aI'd of Education au~orized the issuance of the Administrators' Professional Fiveand Six-year Certificates. ** These certificates are to be used by assistant principals, principals, assistant superintendents, and superintendents, and are designed to replace the two types of professional certificates previously issued to principals and superintendents.

A provisional certificate for administrators will not be issued. However, an individual who holds or qualifies for
the Principal's or Superintendent's Provisional (P-4 or SU-4) qertificate*** must continue his program until professional requirements are complete. At that time the Administrator's Professional Five-year ~rtifi~e may be issued.

Individuals who hold or qualify for the Principal's and/or Superintendent's Professional Five-year Certificate are eligible to make application for the Administrator's Professional Five-year Certificate. Individuals who hold or qualify for the Principal's and/or Superintendent's Six-year Certificate are eligible to make application for the Administrator's Six-year Certificate.

For those individuals who are qualified, or who qualify by September 1, 1962, the administrator's certificate may be issued with July 1, 1962, as the beginning validity date.

* For information concerning additional certificates at the five- and six-year levels, see page :D. ** Requirements for the administrators' certificates are given on pages 34 and 35. ***Requirements for the P-4 or SU-4 Certificate are given on page 36.
