(1) Existing law requires the Commission on Teacher Credentialing to issue a California teaching credential, including a 5-year preliminary multiple subject teaching credential, a 5-year preliminary single subject credential, or a 5-year preliminary education specialist credential, to a teacher prepared in a country other than the United States who meets specified requirements. This bill would authorize the commission to issue a multiple subject, single subject, or education specialist teaching credential to a teacher prepared in a country other than the United States who has earned a valid corresponding elementary, secondary, or special education teaching credential in another state and who meets specified requirements. The bill would also make various nonsubstantive conforming changes. (2) Existing law requires the commission to select, administer, and interpret subject matter examinations, and provides that the adequacy of subject matter preparation and the basis for assignment of certified personnel is determined by the successful passage of a subject matter examination, except as specifically waived pursuant to specified provisions. This bill would require a school district, county office of education, or charter school that provides intensive examination preparation courses for the purposes of preparing credential holders to demonstrate subject matter knowledge to meet specified requirements. The bill would authorize those local educational entities to contract with other specified entities for services to provide intensive examination preparation courses to assist teacher participants to prepare for taking commission-approved subject matter examinations.
