Qualifications:

According to Michigan law, all persons providing instruction at the elementary and secondary levels must hold a certificate, permit, or vocational authorization valid for the teaching assignment (R 390.1105).

To qualify for a substitute permit, an individual must have completed at least 90 semester hours of satisfactory credit consolidated at a regionally accredited four-year college or university. In accordance with existing policy, college credit is defined as satisfactory if it is a “C” (2.0) cumulative grade point average or better. Also, these credits must have been completed at or transferred to a four-year, regionally accredited college or university; they will not be accepted directly from a community college. The substitute permit is valid until August 31 of the school year in which the permit is issued.


For those applicants not holding a current Teaching Certificate, Coor ISD will apply for a substitute permit with the State of Michigan on your behalf. There is a $45.00 per year fee accessed by and payable to the State of Michigan.

 

If an applicant needing a permit checks "yes" on the disclosure conviction question, the applicant must provide a copy of the court documents. The acceptable documents include the Judgment of Sentence, Register of Actions, Certificate of Conviction, or a copy of the court docket.  If the court indicates they do not have the court documents, a letter from the courts, on court letterhead and signed by the court clerk, is acceptable and must be accompanied with a detailed letter from the applicant which must include the offense, year of conviction, and the city and state where offense took place.
