Already certified in another state? 

To work in a Michigan school, you need a valid teaching certificate or permit. We’ll match your out-of-state certificate as much as possible, but you may need to meet additional requirements. Submit an application in the Michigan Online Educator Certification System (MOECS) to start the evaluation, and you’ll be emailed with any further steps.
