Kansas Licensed Teachers

Kansas licensed teachers must also hold a currently valid Kansas professional level teaching license as well as have achieved National Board Certification®. 

  

NBCTs from out-of-state

National Board Certified Teachers® coming from out-of-state may apply for the accomplished license as their initial Kansas license.  Part of the application process includes verifying a currently valid National Board Certificate® and a currently valid professional level teaching license in another state.  The accomplished license will be valid for as long as the current National Board Certificate® is valid.
