发牌规定及详情
The Traffic Safety courses at SCSU prepare driver and traffic safety educators for several states, all of which have slightly different requirements. The courses also prepare driver and traffic safety educators for private enterprises, who are licensed by the Department of Public Safety (DPS). These DPS-licensed candidates are not required to have a professional teaching license, and would thus not be eligible to be licensed through the Minnesota Professional Educator Licensing and Standards Board (PELSB). 请注意,第II层 & Administrator licenses alone do not allow one to be licensed through PELSB for the Driver and Traffic Safety endorsement. To apply for the Driver and Traffic Safety endorsement, Tier III or Tier IV Minnesota professional teaching licensure is required.
