How do I apply for certification after I receive my test scores?
Application for certification does not proceed automatically when your scores are received by TEA. To apply for certification, you must go to the SBEC website and follow the application for certification instructions.
Who do I contact if I have questions about applying for certification?
If you have questions about applying for certification, go to the State Board for Educator Certification (SBEC) website or contact Texas Education Agency (TEA).
