License

by New

Jul 24, 2013

Does anyone know how long after submitting an application for licensure it takes for them to start reviewing it? I have a license in PA and my application should have arrived In Nevada July 17th and I included my conditional offer of employment. I'm driving cross country to move to Nevada this Sat and nervous about possibly being left high and dry.

Backlogged they are...there are a lot of teachers from other states trying to take jobs here thinking it will be better than where they are. Make sure you are prepared to take a second job as many have to do this. Many teachers come from back east thinking it will be great to live in Las Vegas, then get stuck with a long commute to their school because they get moved 1/2 way through the year as teachers with more seniority take their job to be closer to where they live. I welcome all the out of state teachers, but you better be sure your states license can be picked up here. Nevada does not fit with very many states and there will be many classes to take and more Praxis tests to take to teach here. You will also get stuck in a school you may not want for 2 years or more and be moved a couple of times, which is out of your control. I was in 3 schools in 2 years because I kept getting moved until I went and got a Science degree so now I can stick where I want. Math, Science and Spec Ed degree holders can pretty much write their own ticket here(school wise I mean)..There was a lot of openings this year and you may not get in til after the year starts, then get moved in the middle of the year, but it is a good job once in and established. Good luck and remember to do your homework and talk to some teachers if you can
