Step 3: Becoming Permanently Certified
Standard Certificate
A Standard Certificate is a permanent certificate issued to persons who have met all certification requirements.
- Once the residency/mentoring program is completed and the educator is recommended by the corresponding program provider, the school district initiates the conversion to standard application in 樱花视频 Educator Certification (NJEdCert) system.
- The 樱花视频 Department of Education (NJDOE) emails the educator instructions on how to claim and pay for the standard certification.
- The standard certificate is issued by the NJDOE once the Oath and $200 payment confirmation is received.
Upon satisfactory completion of the residency/mentoring program (the candidate is evaluated formatively three to five times) and recommendation of the mentor, the State Board of Examiners will issue a standard certificate.
