What is NCLB and am I NCLB certified?
NCLB is the federal No Child Left Behind Act. NCLB in California is administered by the California Department of Education (CDE) www.cde.ca.gov not the university or the Commission on Teacher Credentialing. NCLB compliance is determined by the employing school district. If you have not yet been employed then NCLB compliance will be determined by your employing school district once you have been hired. Neither the university nor the Commission on Teacher Credentialing may determine NCLB compliance for you, it is up to the employing school district using CDE guidelines.
