CACTUS Batch Updates and Interfaces
Printing of Licenses and Endorsements
When the batch Print License report is run, a list of the social security numbers and names that are flagged to print, along with a count is displayed.
New or renewed licenses are printed at intervals on the Board Report. Duplicate license requests do not go to the Board Report.
From June 30 - July 1, an automatic procedure is run that will close out all the assignment records for the school year just ending, and create a new record for each educator. If a educator has a license that expires, a program will calculate their experience and determine if they are eligible for automatic renewal. All automatically renewed licenses are printed in this process.
For automatic renewal, an educator must hold a standard license, have a clean background record, and earn 9 credits in the previous 5 years. A year of full-time teaching is equivalent to 3 credits. They may substitute 9 credits of Professional Development or university courses. They may also apply credits toward endorsements and/or lane change. Since details on education credits are not kept for other schools, the USOE automatically renews only those who earn their credits through teaching in Utah Public Schools.
