New MSDE regulations became effective on April 1, 2024. Current educators who hold an active certificate will not need to worry about the new renewal requirements, as they will be transitioned to the new license at the expiration of the current certificate.
IMPORTANT CERTIFICATION REMINDERS
ALL MARYLAND EDUCATORS must register their educator account with "The Educator Application and Certification Hub" (TEACH), Maryland's portal for educator certification.
Effective October 1, 2024, educators will no longer be required to log into their City Schools account to submit renewal requests. Instead, all certification renewal applications must be submitted exclusively through the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) system.
