Commission on Teacher Credentialing: membership.

California · 2025-2026 Regular Session · lower

Description

Existing law establishes the Commission on Teacher Credentialing, consisting of 15 voting members, including the Superintendent of Public Instruction as a permanent member and 14 other members, including 6 practicing teachers from public elementary and secondary schools and 3 representatives of the public, appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the Senate, serving staggered 4-year terms, as provided. The bill would authorize the governor to appoint to the commission, as one of the 6 practicing teachers, a teacher with a commission-issued child development teacher permit who teaches at a licensed state-funded preschool or prekindergarten program, as provided. The bill would, upon the occurrence of the first vacancy of a public representative position on or after January 1, 2026, reduce the number of public representatives on the commission from 3 to 2 and require the governor to appoint instead one early childhood faculty member representing the early childhood higher education systems who teaches at either (1) an early childhood or child development baccalaureate degree program at one of the California State University or University of California campuses or (2) an associate degree program in one of the California Community Colleges' early childhood education programs.
