Substitute Authorization Class
Northwest AEA
Launch the media gallery 1 playerWhat is the Substitute Authorization?
The Substitute Authorization allows an individual
with a baccalaureate degree who has completed the
Substitute Authorization program to substitute in an
elementary, middle school, junior high school or high
school classroom for no more than five consecutive
days in one job assignment at a time.
Paraeducators who hold a Paraeducator Generalist
Certificate and complete the Substitute Authorization
program are authorized to substitute, but only in the
special education classroom in which the individual
paraeducator is employed. A paraeducator cannot
substitute in a general education classroom.
Schools continue to have the autonomy to hire
only individuals who are fully licensed as teachers.
However, there now exists a second option for schools
that may have difficulty filling a short-term substitute
position.

substitute teaching.
Classroom Management
methods for keeping students engaged and on-task.
Instructional Strategies
the components of effective lessons and
instructional strategies.
