Help someone,
I need a straight answer regarding whether you need a
Masters degree in Oregon to renew your license. I asked so
many people, universities, principals, superintendents, and
the TSCP, but no one can still give me the straight answer.
This is my situation: I have a bachelors degree. I got a
multi subject teaching credential from California.
(Teaching credential program consisted of 38 smemester hour
units). I have all the requirements for an Oregon
license. After getting an Oregon Initial license, will I
need to get a Masters degree? Some say yes, some say no.
Which is it? TSCP told me that they changed the policy and
now they will accept 45 quarter hour units of post
bachelors classes in liew of the masters degree. So does
that mean my 37 semester units will count towards the
equivalent of the masters degree, or do I have to start all
over and get 45 units of graduate courses? Help, does...See More

Shelley,
I have been teaching for over 30 years and have never heard
of a state that requires its teachers to have a master's
degree to renew a teaching certificate; however, each state
has a set number of professional hours that are required of
each educator before a certificate will be renewed. Each
