Iowa Admin. Code r. 282-20.2 - Renewal and extension requirements for the initial license

(1) Initial license renewals. The temporary initial teaching license, initial teaching license, initial professional service license, or initial administrator license may be renewed twice if the experience requirement for conversion has not been met. The second renewal will require proof of contracted employment that will lead to the full license.

(2) Initial license extensions. A one-year extension may be granted if:

a. All standards have been met and the applicant needs one additional year to meet the experience requirement for the standard teaching license, professional service license, or professional administrator license.

b. The school district, after conducting a comprehensive evaluation, recommends and verifies that the temporary initial, initial teaching, or initial professional service license holder will participate in the mentoring program for a third year. No further extensions or renewals are available.
