Iowa Admin. Code r. 282-20.8 - [Effective until 2/26/2025] Specific renewal requirements for the initial administrator license

In addition to the provisions set forth in this rule, an applicant must meet the general requirements set forth under rule 282-20.3 (272).

(1) Requirements. If an applicant meets all requirements for the professional administrator license except for the requirements in 282-subrule 18.5(3), the initial administrator license may be renewed upon written request. A second renewal may be granted if the holder of the initial administrator license has not met the requirements in 282-subrule 18.5(3) and if the license holder can provide evidence of employment as a PK-12 administrator, which meets the experience requirement.

(2) Extension. An extension of the initial administrator license may be issued instead of the renewal of the initial administrator license if the applicant verifies one of the following:

a. The applicant is involved in a mentoring and induction program, but the license will expire before the first year of administrative experience is completed.

b. The applicant has one year of administrative experience in a nonpublic school setting or in an out-of-state setting and needs one additional year of administrative experience to convert the initial license to the professional license.
