Below you will find step by step instructions on how to obtain a 30-Day Substitute Teaching Permit.

Questions should be directed to Zeke Lopez, Human Resources Generalist, at HR@byron.k12.ca.us.

Prior to being cleared to serve as a certificated substitute teacher, all candidates must possess a 30-Day Substitute Teaching Permit (or any other K-12 credential) issued by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC).

Step 1: Fingerprint Clearance for the California Commission on Teachering Credentialing (CTC)

Fingerprint clearance through the California Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is required from every applicant prior to the Commission’s issuance of any credential, permit, certificate, or waiver. See link to Livescan Request Form (CTC) to the left.

You are REQUIRED to have a separate livescan completed for the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing even if you have already completed one for Byron Union School District.

Step 2: Submit online application for a Certificate of Clearance (COC)
The Certificate of Clearance (C O C) is a document issued by the Commission to an individual who has completed the Commission's fingerprint character and identification process.

From the Commission's Home page, use the blue Educator Login button to complete the online application. You will be required to create an account before you can start the application process. Be sure to follow the steps as directed for submitting an online application for a Certificate of Clearance.

If you need help completing your online profile and application, see the video link provided, COC application.

Step 3: Official Transcripts
Request to have your "official" BA/BS transcripts sent to Human Resources at zlopez@byron.k12.ca.us.

In order to submit your application to the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC), they require us to submit an "official" copy of your BA/BS Conferral transcripts (see Transcript Guidelines).

Transcripts By Mail: Transcripts sent by mail must be mailed to the HR Department directly from the college/university. 

Transcripts By Email: Transcripts sent electronically must be sent to the HR Department directly from the college/university.

The Human Resources Department must also be identified as the intended recipient. Transcripts sent electronically directly to the educator cannot be accepted. 

Step 4: Complete Online Application
Once you have received your Certificate of Clearance and your "official" BA/BA Conferral transcripts have been received, HR will submit an online recommendation for the issuance of your 30-Day Substitute Teaching Permit.

Once the online recommendation has been submitted to the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC), you login to the CTC webiste and complete your online recommendation and pay the issuance fee of $100.00 + online service fee (currently $2.65).

Your 30-Day Sub Permit will be issued within 10 days of completing your online application.
