Lapsed Certificate

IMPORTANT MESSAGE: In August 2011 Public Act 097-0607 was signed into law by Governor Quinn. This new law significantly changes when a teaching certificate is to be considered "lapsed." The new law requires a certificate to be considered lapsed six months after the last registration year.
