4 ADDITIONAL CREDENTIAL APPLICATION PACKET INFORMATION You are required to apply for both credentials simultaneously. Once your application is received, your file will be evaluated and you will be emailed a form showing the status of your file. This update will advise you of any requirements needed before recommendation of your credential.

5 CREDENTIAL APPLICATION PROCESS Credential submission is completed electronically to the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) Electronic recommendations will not begin until grades are posted – mid-January, 2015.

6 CREDENTIAL APPLICATION PROCESS (continued) 1st step   Complete and submit the credential evaluation request and evaluation fee. 2 nd step   Your file is reviewed to make sure all requirements have been met. After final grades are posted in mid-January, and we verify that you have successfully completed all requirements and course work, a Credential Analyst recommends you for a credential via the CTC online recommendation system. We anticipate the recommendation process will be complete by mid-February for those students who have met all requirements. Applications will be processed on a date-order basis.

7 CREDENTIAL APPLICATION PROCESS (continued 2) 3rd step   CTC will email you a notification of recommendation for your credential. This notification will provide a link that instructs you to complete your credential application process.   You will also pay credential fees. Payment by MasterCard, VISA, debit/credit card, or a one-time credit card (available at most grocery stores) is the only option for payment of the on-line recommendation. The credential fee is $72.00 per credential. If you have a credit on file with CTC, you may be directed to submit a different amount.

8 CREDENTIAL APPLICATION PROCESS (continued 3) 3rd step - continued   CTC notifies the student and Education Services Center via email that all fees have been paid and student will be issued a credential.   This initial email will not list all authorizations for your credential, however, it may be used as verification of credential application and payment for your district or a prospective employer.

9 CREDENTIAL APPLICATION PROCESS (continued final) 4th step   Credentials are issued by CTC on-line ONLY; no paper document will be issued.   You may verify issuance of your credential at: http://www.ctc.ca.gov/ Click on the navy blue rectangle box that says “Online Services for Educators.” http://www.ctc.ca.gov/   On the page that opens, click on the LARGE navy blue rectangle box that says “EDUCATOR PAGE.”   The page that opens will ask for SSN and DoB.
