Should You Pursue Both Teaching Licenses?

Why obtaining both licenses is recommended

Daytime-program students who are seriously considering teacher recruitment examinations are strongly encouraged to plan to obtain both lower- and upper-secondary teaching licenses, rather than only one. Some local governments and private schools require candidates to be on track to obtain both licenses. This requirement is especially common for mathematics and science positions. Holding both licenses may also broaden employment options as the number of combined lower- and upper-secondary schools increases.
