 The ERATS Continuing Education Committee meets once quarterly to approve CEUs (continuing education units) for teachers who have Tier 3 and Tier 4 teaching licenses. Please speak to the Director or your supervisor if you have a Tier 1 or Tier 2 license. The committee will meet on Thursday, May 29. This is our final meeting until August; the committee cannot help anyone with clock hours in June. Our meeting dates will be announced at least one week prior so that teachers have time to organize paperwork for submission. Please submit CEUs on an ongoing basis so the committee can track exactly what required elements you've completed and what you have left to do. Thank you! Looking for online training to get CEUs?

Committee Bylaws (updated Fall 2024 to include American Indian cultural training requirement) EDUCATORS NOT CURRENTLY EMPLOYED AT ERATS The MN Department of Education and our bylaws state that if an individual is not employed by our school, the relicensure committee in the school district where that particular individual lives has jurisdiction. For example, if you live in Biwabik, you would need to contact the Mesabi East school district's Continuing Education Committee. Info and links last updated 5-27-2025 (EF) |
