Professional Teacher Certificate:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

If you are not employed by an SAU, you must provide documentation of the successful completion of six (6) semester hours (credits) of approved study or 90 hours of in-service training. If you are not employed in Maine under a professional certificate, you must submit six (6) credits of approved study taken within the last five years.

Teachers who gain an extra $8K in salary 20 years before retirement bring home an extra $160K in earnings.<\/strong> And those teachers may also receive a higher pension by finishing their careers at an advance salary level. Compare that to the educator who achieves that goal 10 years later: $80K less income. See what credit accrual could mean for you by using our salary calculator. Be sure to check our course bundles that let you accrue credits at less cost and on a pay-as-you-learn plan.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
