If you have a bachelor's degree and relevant expertise, you may be eligible to teach in a public school without a standard teaching license through an emergency or temporary credential. To be eligible for employment consideration through Nimble Connect, you must answer yes to each of the following:
Do you hold a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university?
Are you able to provide documentation (transcripts or degree) confirming that degree?
Do you have experience (either 18+ college credits or 2+ years of work experience) in the subject area for which you seek to teach?
Do you seek to teach a subject other than Special Education? (Special Education is not eligible for temporary teaching credentials in any state.)
Have you passed, or will you pass, a background check (i.e., a clean criminal record, not registered on sex offender or child abuse registries)?
Are you eligible to work in the United States without visa sponsorship?
Are you willing to complete all the state's requirements for a temporary teaching credential and work towards the requirements of permanent certification (see state-specific information below)?
