TO APPROVE REGULATIONS OF THE STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION, RELATING TO REQUIREMENTS FOR ADDITIONAL AREAS OF CERTIFICATION, DESIGNATED AS REGULATION DOCUMENT NUMBER 4422, PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF ARTICLE 1, CHAPTER 23, TITLE 1 OF THE 1976 CODE.
Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
SECTION 1. The regulations of the State Board of Education, relating to Requirements for Additional Areas of Certification, designated as Regulation Document Number 4422, and submitted to the General Assembly pursuant to the provisions of Article 1, Chapter 23, Title 1 of the 1976 Code, are approved.
SECTION 2. This joint resolution takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
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.
Per request of the Senate Education Committee, the State Board of Education withdrew the regulation, made the changes delineated below, and resubmitted the regulation:
Derivatives of the usage of "License" (license, licenses, licensed, licensure) in place of derivatives of "Certificate" should revert to the original, appropriate term used (Certification, etc.).
The drafting notice was published in the State Register on August 23, 2013.
