44332
. (a) Except where that service is provided by a school
district authorized to register certification documents pursuant to
Section 44332.5, each county or city and county board of education
may issue temporary certificates for the purpose of authorizing
salary payments to certified employees whose credential applications
are being processed or to personnel employed in children's centers or
other preschool educational programs whose permit applications are
being processed. However, the individual must have demonstrated
proficiency in basic reading, writing, and mathematic skills pursuant
to the requirements of Section 44252.5. The applicant for the
temporary certificate shall make a statement under oath that he or
she has duly filed an application for a credential or permit together
with the required fee and that, to the best of his or her knowledge,
no reason exists why a certificate or permit should not be issued.
The certificate or permit shall be valid for not more than one
calendar year from the date of issuance.
(b) The county or city and county board of education shall cancel
the temporary certificate or permit immediately upon receipt of
certification in writing from the commission that the applicant
apparently does not possess adequate academic qualifications or
apparently has a criminal record that would disqualify the applicant.
(c) A temporary certificate issued to a permit applicant is not
valid beyond the time that the commission either issues or denies the
originally requested permit. A temporary certificate issued to a
credential applicant is not valid beyond the time that the commission
provides written notification to the county or city and county board
of education that the applicant apparently does not possess adequate
qualifications, that the commission has received facts that may
cause denial of the application, or issues or denies the originally
requested credential.
(d) A county or city and county board of education may not issue a
temporary certificate to an applicant whose teaching credential is
revoked or suspended.
