Continuing Education/Clock Hour Information

On April 5, 2021, the Washington State Senate passed House Bill 1426, which states:

• "To renew an administrator certificate on or after July 1, 2023, continuing education must meet the following requirements: 10 percent must focus on equity-based school practices, 10 percent must focus on the national professional standards for education leaders, and five percent must focus on government-to-government relationships with federally recognized tribes."
• "To renew a teacher certificate on or after July 1, 2023, 15 percent of continuing education must focus on equity-based school practices. This subsection does not apply to a person renewing both a teacher certificate and an administrator certificate."
