| In
July of 1991, a legislative mandate was enacted which
created the Professional Standards Commission (PSC)
as a separate government agency, removed from the
Georgia Department of Education, with the central
responsibility for establishing a certification/licensure
process that is streamlined, understandable, and
flexible in order to remove barriers and to attract
qualified individuals to the education profession.
Specifically, the PSC’s major purposes are:
to simplify and make more efficient the process of
certifying educational personnel in Georgia; to attract
the highest possible number of qualified personnel
to become educators in Georgia; to promote the hiring
of qualified educators from other states; and to
improve the level of preparation of educators. |
