Job-Embedded Licensure

If you do not hold a teaching license but have a Bachelor’s degree and the desire to become a certified teacher, obtaining a job-embedded teaching license is an option.

• 1. Enroll in an educator prep program through a university or a non-degree certificate program, such as iTeach.

  2. Complete and pass the Praxis that aligns with the content area you wish to teach. (Ex. If you wish to teach middle school science, you must take the Praxis for middle school science.)

  3. Once you have passed the Praxis, you are eligible for a job-embedded license! Speak with your program to determine how you will receive your Letter of Eligibility. (This may be referred to as an Intent to Hire letter or a Job-Embedded Eligibility letter.)

  4. At this point, you have the opportunity to apply for positions within your content area. 

     • Visit our employment page to see available positions.

  5. Once you are offered a position with CMCSS, you receive your job-embedded license. You will continue to work with your educator prep program and CMCSS until you complete the program. 

Items Required to Upload with Your Application: 

• Resume

• Transcripts from your regionally accredited university 

• Letter of Eligibility (Uploaded in place of a Teaching License)

• Confirmation of your Praxis scores. (Must show a passing score.)
