19 Tex. Admin. Code § 230.91 - Procedures in General
(a) The State Board
for Educator Certification (SBEC), in compliance with SBEC rules, shall issue
appropriate certificates to qualified individuals who meet all requirements.
(1) The certificate shall identify the name
of the holder, the class, grade levels, subject areas, and validity periods of
all certificates issued, and reflect, if applicable, disciplinary history taken
by the SBEC.
(2) A certificate that
is issued shall be maintained in a printable format on the Texas Education
Agency (TEA) website on behalf of the SBEC.
(b) Permanent records of all certificates,
permits, and supporting documentation shall be maintained by the TEA
staff.
(c) An applicant for or
holder of an educator's certificate shall be responsible for maintaining his or
her educator profile with current mailing and email addresses. The applicant
for or holder of an educator's certificate must update his or her educator
profile within 45 calendar days of the effective date of such change, unless
another rule under this title requires earlier notification.
(d) The representation of an individual's
certificate status as maintained on the TEA website is considered to be the
official record of educator certification. This electronic representation of
the certificate satisfies Texas Education Code, §
21.053(a),
which requires individuals to present their certificate prior to employment by
a school district.
