Below are USBE’s explanations of each license:

LEA Specific: An LEA-Specific educator license, including areas of concentration and endorsements, is issued by the state board at the request of an LEA’s governing body (i.e.-local school board) that is valid for an employee to fill a position in the LEA if other licensing routes for the applicant are untenable or unreasonable.

Associate Educator License: Valid for 3 years of teaching; temporary and nonrenewable.

The AEL is available for anyone who wants to teach in Utah but has not completed an educator preparation program (university-based or alternate program). The associate educator license is intended for:

  • Individuals who have been hired to teach in Utah schools before they have completed the requirements of a Utah professional teaching license, or
  • Individuals who do not currently hold a Utah professional teaching license but would like to teach in Utah while they are working towards a professional educator license.
Professional Educator License: A Professional Educator license is for teachers who have completed an educator preparation program (University-based or alternate program) and have demonstrated all of the State established competencies to be an educator. A professional educator license, license area, or endorsement is valid for five (5) years.
