TX HB1178
The creation of a temporary educator certificate for educators certified by other states
Texas House Bill 1178 allows educators who are certified in other states to obtain a temporary teaching certificate in Texas. This is intended to help fill teacher shortages by making it easier for qualified out-of-state teachers to work in Texas schools. The temporary certificate will enable these educators to start teaching while they complete any additional requirements needed for full certification in Texas.
