Public Hearing on PI 34 Emergency Rule
By Wisconsin School Administrators Alliance staff | June 19, 2017
The Department of Public Instruction is submitting an emergency rule on PI 34 under s. 115.28(7)(a), Stats. The emergency rule and corresponding public hearing notice are linked below. The emergency rule will be effective on Saturday, June 17th. The public hearing will be held on Thursday, July 6 in Madison.
PI 34 contains the current administrative rules governing the licensure of school personnel. Section 115.425, Wis. Stats., and PI 34.36, Wis. Admin. Code, provide the duties of the Professional Standards Council for Teachers, which advises and makes recommendations to the State Superintendent of Public Instruction on matters pertaining to the licensure of teachers. The PSC developed a strategic plan for addressing school staffing challenges in Wisconsin with the goal of developing, supporting, and retaining teachers, and some of those recommendations were reviewed by stakeholder groups and used in this rule development. Such strategies include fewer licenses with greater flexibility, easing the licensing process for out-of-state license holders, reducing the testing burden, and expanding pathways into the profession.
Written comments on the emergency rule must be received no later than July 21, 2017, and will be given the same consideration as testimony presented at the hearing.
