COVID-19 Emergency Certification
How to Apply for the Emergency COVID-19 Certificate
For students who have completed all certification requirements, other than exam requirements including the edTPA, New York state has created an additional Emergency COVID-19 certificate that will be valid for two years and available to candidates in their specified certificate areas.
Students who are graduating in Fall 2021, Spring 2022, Summer 2022 or prior semesters are eligible for the certification and those who are currently enrolled into a School of Education Alternative Certification program (Teaching Fellows, NYC Teaching Collaborative etc.) and need to obtain Transitional B Certification. Students who have completed all certification requirements, including exams and edTPA (or have used the safety net), can apply for certification as usual and do not need to apply for the Emergency Certification.
You must meet all requirements for your base certification, except the exams, and apply by September 1, 2022.
For support, please contact soeoasa@hunter.cuny.edu.
The following is a step-by-step guide to apply for the Emergency COVID-19 certification through the New York State Department of Education’s TEACH Account.
1. Create/Log in to your TEACH Account
Students must create/log in to their New York State Education Department (NYSED) TEACH Account.
2. Apply for your base certification.
Depending on your program this could be an Initial, Additional Certificate, Transitional B Certificate or Professional Certification. Directions on how to apply can be found on the Certification and Licensure page. Choose your program from the list and follow those directions first. Keep that page open in another window or tab as you will need to refer to it again. Then return to these directions.
3. Verify/Update Profile Again
The Verify/Update Profile section will ask for education and employment history. You must open each section, review and save it in order to move forward in the application.
4. Select Certificate(s)
On the certificate page, enter the information as you have done for your base certification.
