All testing required by the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) must be completed prior to licensure in accordance with Illinois School/Legislative Code.
Testing mandates can be revised or changed by legislative rule change. It is important for candidates to read any information received from the educator licensure program or the Council on Teacher Education (CoTE) regarding changes in licensure test requirements or logistics. Further information on testing can be found at the ISBE website.
