Legislation changes regarding National Board funding

The deadline for requesting State funding for applications for National Board certification is October 31, 2009. In 2009-10, there is state funding for the National Board application fee. However, per SB202 Section 7.30(a), beginning in 2010-11, the application fee will no longer be paid by the State. Eligible candidates will be able to take out a loan for the funds through the State Education Assistance Authority. For more information in National Board application process, go to http://www.ncpublicschools.org/recruitment/nationalboardcertification/
