Section 44210 Of Article 2. Commission On Teacher Credentialing From California Education Code >> Division 3. >> Title 2. >> Part 25. >> Chapter 2. >> Article 2.
44210
. (a) There is hereby established in the state government the
Commission on Teacher Credentialing, to consist of 15 voting members,
14 of whom shall be appointed by the Governor with the advice and
consent of the Senate, as specified in paragraphs (2) to (7),
inclusive. The commission shall consist of the following members:
(1) The Superintendent or his or her designee.
(2) Six practicing teachers from public elementary and secondary
schools in California.
(3) One person who is employed on the basis of a services
credential other than an administrative services credential.
(4) One member of a school district governing board.
(5) Four representatives of the public. None of these persons
shall have been employed by an elementary or secondary school
district in a position requiring certification, or shall have served
as a school district governing board member in the five-year period
immediately prior to his or her appointment to the commission.
(6) One school administrator in a public elementary or secondary
school in California.
(7) One faculty member from a college or university that grants
baccalaureate degrees.
(b) With the exception of the four representatives of the public
and the Superintendent, the appointment of a member shall terminate
if he or she is no longer a practicing teacher in a public elementary
or secondary school, a person who is employed on the basis of a
valid services credential, a school administrator, a faculty member
of a college or university that grants baccalaureate degrees, or a
school district governing board member, as may be the case, in
California.
(c) Not more than one member of the commission is to be appointed
from the same school district or college or university campus.
(d) The term of each member appointed to the commission on or
prior to June 30, 1989, shall expire on July 1, 1989. It is the
intent of the Legislature that as of July 1, 1989, the Governor first
appoint to the commission, as feasible, members of the Commission on
Teacher Credentialing whose terms, notwithstanding this section,
would not have expired, to facilitate the transition to a commission
with a reduced membership. Commencing July 1, 1989, four members
shall be appointed to the commission for terms of two years, five
members for terms of three years, and five members for terms of four
years.
(e) Each appointment pursuant to this section shall expire on
November 20 of the year of expiration of the applicable term. All
appointments made pursuant to this section are subject to Section
44213.
