Section 67.1-02-06-03 - Other state educator license (OSEL)

North Dakota other state educator licensure will be issued to those applicants who hold a regular teaching license or certificate in early childhood, elementary, middle, or secondary education from another state and submit the following:

1. A completed application pursuant to section 67.1-02-02-02 for the North Dakota professional educator's license;

2. Submission to a fingerprint screening for criminal records in accordance with North Dakota Century Code section 15.1-13-14;

3. Completion and documentation of a four-year bachelor's degree from a state-approved teacher education program in a North Dakota-recognized program area major, including the professional education sequence and a student teaching experience, submission of all fees for initial licensure pursuant to section 67.1-02-02-02 and renewal as pursuant to section 67.1-02-02-04; and

4. Documentation of a valid regular professional educator's license from the issuing state.

An applicant who holds a valid out-of-state license who has completed an alternate certification program will be issued an out-of-state license upon completion of the Praxis I, Praxis II PLT, and Praxis II content specific test.

A license granted under this section is valid for two years if the applicant has not been licensed in another state for at least eighteen months. If the applicant received a teaching license or certificate from another state on or after January 1, 2002, and if the issuing state did not require that the individual pass a state test as a condition of licensure or certification, the board shall require that the individual, within two years from the date of the license, pass all state licensure tests normally required of applicants from this state.

In all other cases, a license granted under this section is valid for five years and is renewable if the licenseholder meets the reeducation requirements established for all five-year license renewals.

A license granted under this section must include all of the applicant's endorsements issued or recognized by the applicant's other state of licensure.
