[Pages:3]The Georgia Professional Standards Commission (GaPSC) issues a Certificate of Eligibility to individuals that have submitted all required documents for initial certification but are not employed as an educator. A Certificate of Eligibility is NOT a teaching certificate and DOES NOT CERTIFY the holder for any teaching position in Georgia.

The Certificate of Eligibility serves as evidence that a person is eligible for an educator certificate and qualifies for employment by a Georgia local unit of administration (LUA). A LUA is a local education agency or a regional educational service agency, including but not limited to public, waiver, strategic waiver system, charter system or charter schools and private schools. An early learning child care center offering Georgia's Pre-K is also considered a LUA.

When a teacher with a Certificate of Eligibility is hired by an LUA, the employing LUA must request the issuance of the educator certificate from the GaPSC. The LUA may request the certificate by submitting the following to the Georgia Professional Standards Commission (GaPSC):

Georgia PSC Certification Update Application (must be completed by the teacher) Georgia PSC Employer Assurance Form (must be completed by Pre-K project director)

The forms are located at . The forms may be faxed to 404-232-2661 or email pdr@.

The educator certificate will be issued after the Certification Update Application and Employer Assurance forms are received and processed. Teachers can print their educator certificate via their MyPSC account at .

For questions about the Certificate of Eligibility or the process for requesting the educator certificate, contact the Georgia Professional Standards Commission at 404-232-2500 or 800-869-7775 or mail@.
