Licensing Rules, Policies and State Law for Utah Educators
Information on licensing rules for Utah educators available through this page
is current as of January 1998 unless otherwise noted. Some changes have taken
place. If you have questions contact Educator Quality & Licensing at (801) 538-7741.
Similar information on teacher licensing in other states is available at either
the University of Kentucky or k12jobs.com .
Please be aware that with the new Educator Licensing and Professional
Practices Act which went into effect July 1999, many of these requirements
have changed. We are currently in the process of updating these requirements
