The Relicensure Committee...
is a volunteer committee that examines the educational experience documentation of teachers, verifies that the experiences are germane to the licensure area, determines that the teacher is eligible for license renewal, enters informational data into the MDE Licensing system, and upholds the Board of Teaching Laws. The committee serves as an informational agent on licensure for the professional staff. 

The deadline for submitting Relicensure paperwork is May 14, 2013.
Paperwork received after May 14 will be processed in September, 2013.

Please consult the information posted on this page for answers to your questions. 
Other questions from certified staff regarding the Relicensure process should be directed to Maureen Breemeersch or Peggy Ehlert via email. Please do not call. Include your file folder number on all correspondence.
Questions will be addressed ONLY at our monthly meetings and a response will be sent to you at that time.

o Please expect a turn around time for submitted paperwork to be approximately 2 to 4 months.

o Due to the large volume of ISD 709 employees needing renewal, persons not currently employed by a Minnesota public school district must submit all paperwork before January 1 of the year their license expires.

o Employees of other Minnesota school districts should submit their paperwork to the relicensure committee of their district. The Duluth committee does not process paperwork from employees of other Minnesota districts.
