The St. Ambrose Education Department works closely with the
Rock Island County Regional Office of Education to assist those who seek
employment in Illinois. Each semester, a representative from the
Regional Office visits the
St. Ambrose campus to explain the necessary steps. A St. Ambrose
graduate must verify that he or she has: 1) completed the St. Ambrose
Teacher Education Program, 2) received a University degree, and
3) obtained an Iowa teaching license. In addition, unlike Iowa,
Illinois requires that all applicants successfully pass three state
examinations dealing with basic skills, the applicant's major area, and
teaching ability.
Iowa and Illinois requirements change periodically and
additional course work may become necessary to obtain an Illinois
certificate or endorsement.
Individuals interested in teaching in Illinois should visit
the Illinois
Board of Education web site for Certification &
Professional Preparation. Questions
regarding Illinois certification or required tests may also be directed to:
Mr. John Flaherty of the Regional Office of Education, 309-736-1111
