I would like the Commission to waive some of the course work required for my credential based upon training and experience that I have had. The Commission does not have the authority to waive any course work required for certification. California trained teachers must complete the course work required by their Commission-approved college or university. The Commission sets the standards for the programs. The institutions develop their programs based upon those guidelines and have the authority to require additional standards or courses beyond the minimum requirements set by the Commission.
Credential renewal requires a full application fee.
Please see the Fee Information leaflet for the current application processing fee.
