SUMMARY AS SUBMITTEDBY PROMULGATING AGENCY.

Regulation 43-62 governs the requirements for add-on certification for educators in South Carolina. Amendments to Regulation 43-62 will (1) refine and update requirements for an educator to be endorsed in online teaching; and (2) change the wording of the regulation to replace certification with licensure in keeping with agency norms. These changes allow the Board to continue to provide appropriately certified educators for South Carolina public schools.
