Candidate Information | Policies & Procedures

Here is the official American Board Candidate Handbook, your guide to successfully moving through American Board’s online teacher certification program. You have one year from the day you enroll to complete certification through our program; however, it frequently takes our candidates less than 10 months to finish (reading the guide helps you finish faster).

Please read the pages below for information on exams, certification requirements, job hunting, and everything you need to know.
