Licensing Requirements
To be licensed in the state of Indiana, you must satisfy your Transition to Teaching course requirements and pass the required Praxis exams. When this has been accomplished, the IWU licensing office will send a checklist and licensure application to you.
When this application along with the appropriate fees and criminal history report is received, IWU will recommend you to the Indiana Office of Educator Licensing and Development (OELD) for licensure. The OELD will mail your license to you in about six weeks.
Teaching Openings
There are several resources available to you that list teaching openings in schools across Indiana. There is no one complete list for the state.
