CRONIN. (DANIELS-PHELPS-BLACK) 105 ILCS 5/21-5c new Amends the School Code to create a statewide alternative teacher certification program. Effective immediately. SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1. Adds reference to: 105 ILCS 5/21-5b rep. Deletes everything after the enacting clause and then restores the deleted provisions with the following changes: (1) designates the newly created program as the Alternative Route to Teacher Certifica- tion program instead of as the Alternative Teacher Certification pro- gram, (2) provides for issuance, upon completion of the program, of a standard elementary or high school teaching certificate instead of an alternative teaching certificate, (3) requires an applicant for a pro- visional alternative teaching certificate to also have been employed for a period of at least 5 years in an area requiring application of the applicant's education, and (4) provides that during the second phase of the program a mentor teacher shall be assigned to advise and assist the program participant in his or her teaching assignment. Also repeals a provision of the School Code that was added by P.A. 89-708 and that created an alternative teacher certification program applic- able only within the Chicago school district.
