Certification

Former edTPA Certification Requirement

At its April 2022 meeting, the New York State Board of Regents voted to eliminate the edTPA requirement for teacher certification. The edTPA is no longer a certification requirement as of April 27, 2022. On that date, the edTPA safety net, edTPA Multiple Measures Review Process (MMRP), and the availability of the Conditional Initial certificate also ended, as these accommodations are no longer needed.

Please see the following Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) webpage for information about the elimination of the edTPA certification requirement.
