How to Renew or Upgrade Credentials

Renewal: Educators must renew credentials, referred to as “renewing a document,” in order to obtain a Clear or Level II credential. The requirements to do this must be accessed in the online system and are dependent upon how the current credential was obtained. The only way to determine the requirements is to access the CTC Online system. Completing the professional level requirements typically includes earning a master’s degree or equivalent credits or the completion of 150 clock hours of professional development approved by CTC.
