Please Read First - Teaching Licensure Information
Concordia University Students who complete an education preparation program are approved by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction and receive a license from the department. Students who are seeking employment in another state are usually eligible to receive at least a one-year license from other states. Most states require that educators who were prepared in another state complete at least one state-specific requirement such as a test or course(s). The one-year or other temporary license gives educators the opportunity to work in a school while they complete the state requirement(s).
Students/Educators seeking licensure in another state should obtain the most recent certification/licensure information directly from the state in which they seek employment.
Specific questions can be asked at licensure.assessment@cuw.edu.
