LEA-Specific Educator License and Endorsement Information
All educators assigned as public school teachers in Utah are required to be licensed and qualified for their teaching assignment, as defined by the Utah State Legislature's Title 53E-6-201: State Board Licensure. The following provides an explanation of the designations that apply to Utah Educator Licenses, license areas (i.e. elementary, secondary, special education, etc.), and content endorsements (i.e. mathematics, music, Spanish, social studies, etc.).
The following designations or levels apply to educator licenses, license areas (i.e.-elementary, secondary, special education), and content endorsements (i.e.-mathematics, music, Spanish, social studies).
Professional: The educator has completed an educator preparation program that includes content and pedagogical knowledge. This program may have been completed at a university or in an alternate pathway that was supported by school districts/charters and the Utah State Board of Education.
Associate: The educator is currently completing an educator preparation program, but has not yet completed all requirements for a Professional Educator License, license area, or endorsement. The educator is enrolled in a university-based or Local Education Agency (LEA)-based program. When the educator completes the program, they will have a professional level.
LEA-Specific: The educator has not completed an educator preparation and is not currently enrolled in one.
When an individual has not yet met the requirements for a Professional Educator License or an Associate Educator License, an LEA-Specific Educator License, including areas of concentration and endorsements, is issued by the state board at the request of a local school board. An LEA-Specific Educator License, including areas of concentration and endorsements, allows an employee to provide educational services in the requesting LEA's schools if other licensing routes for the applicant are untenable or unreasonable.
