The efforts
of our limited number of Certification Division staff must be concentrated
on processing applications submitted by Georgia school systems. We must,
therefore, ask that you use our extensive website or our knowledgeable
staff in the Certification Call Center for informational purposes. Otherwise,
we simply cannot meet our obligation to our school systems during this
critical and peak hiring time.
Key Points To Remember
- Most Georgia certification information, including changes to requirements
under the new certification system; existing certificates; the Georgia TAPP program, our
application forms, and much more, is
available
on www.gapsc.com.
-
Determine the correct route of certification for you by using our self-evaluation
for certification.
- Anyone seeking a nonrenewable certificate should contact the local
school system, not our office. It is the local school system that
is
responsible for pursuing the issuance of non-renewable certificates.
- Our experience has been that certification issues can be resolved
by either the PSC website or by contacting our Call Center, rather than
an appointment. It is unnecessary for someone seeking certification
to simply show up at our offices. We are able to respond to any question
by phone.
- Any certification inquiries not answered by a visit to our website
should be directed to our Call Center by dialing
404-232-2500. One of our
Information Specialists will answer your questions or, if necessary,
refer you to another of our knowledgeable staff members.
- A visit to our office will not result in the issuance of a teaching
certificate.
