Out-of-State Licensing Resources

 

Completers of licensure programs at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign may seek to become licensed in another state.  Licensure requirements and the process to obtain licensure vary from state to state.  Consult the board/department of education website for your target state for information on how to proceed. 

States may request a verification form be submitted as evidence of your completion of an approved licensure program in Illinois.  This form can be sent to the Council on Teacher Education for completion.  See below for resources to assist with learning more about obtaining an out-of-state license:
