Substitute TeachingThe New York State Education Department does not issue substitute teaching certificates. Substitute teachers fall into one of the three following categories.Substitute teachers with a valid teaching certificate can work in any capacity, for any number of days. If they are employed for more than 40 days by a school district or BOCES in a school year, they must be employed in an area for which they are certified.Substitute teachers without a valid certificate, but who are working towards certification (taking college coursework) at a rate of not less than six semester hours per year, can work in any capacity, for any number of days, in any number of school districts. If they are employed for more than 40 days by a school district or BOCES in a school year, they must be employed in the area for which they are seeking certification.*Substitute teachers who do not hold a valid teaching certificate and are not working towards certification.**At its September 2023 meeting, the Board of Regents adopted a permanent regulation allowing substitute teachers who do not hold a valid teaching certificate and are not working towards certification to exceed the 40-day limit:Up to 90 total days in a school year if the district superintendent or the superintendent (for school districts that are not a component district of a BOCES) certifies that the employer has conducted a good faith recruitment search for a properly certified candidate and determined that there are no available certified teachers that can perform the duties of such position; orBeyond 90 days, if the district superintendent or the superintendent attests that a good faith recruitment search has been conducted, that after 90 days there remain no available certified teachers who can perform the duties of such position, and that a particular substitute teacher is needed to work with a specific class or group of students until the end of the school year.**Rate of pay is subject to an increase.
