The Commission on Teacher Credentialing issues various types of credentials, certificates, and permits. Many of these documents require renewal on a regular basis. It is the credential holder's responsibility to complete the requirements for the renewal of their document. The renewal code(s) and renewal requirement(s) for each credential, certificate, and permit were printed on the face of the document until September 1, 2008. Since that date, all documents issued by the Commission are available only in a view and print format, available on the Commission's website.
Here are some examples of where the renewal code can be found on your credential if it was issued prior to September 1, 2008:

This is the holder's one-time two-year extension of his or her professional clear credential. No further extensions will be issued for this credential. Before a five-year clear credential will be issued, the holder must verify that 150 clock hours of planned and approved professional growth activities and one-half of one year of experience as specified in The California Professional Growth Manual have been completed since the last five-year clear credential was issued.
