Out-of-Endorsement Assignment
The Professional Educator Standards Board (PESB) is the new collector of out-of-endorsement assignment data per WAC 181-82-110(d). Previously this data was collected by the State Board of Education, but as a result of 2005 legislation (ESSB 5732) the PESB became the responsible policy board for educator preparation and certification, including the data collection and waivers for out-of-endorsement assignment.
The out-of-endorsement assignment data is important to the PESB and other educational organizations for several reasons.
- Shows Need. This data yields key information about the teaching areas and regions of the state that may need assistance and/or support in finding appropriately endorsed teachers.
- Directs Assistance and Resources. The PESB has developed alternative pathways for teachers to add certificate endorsements and wishes to locate these pathway programs in areas with greatest need.
- Informs State Policy. The data also provides the PESB some evidence to reevaluate, update and change the rules related to state endorsement policy.
