The transitional bilingual certificate is valid for a period of six years for teaching subject matter using the languages of endorsement in approved bilingual education programs in grades K-12 of the common schools. The certificate must be registered with the regional superintendent of the county wherein the holder is teaching. Upon the expiration of a transitional bilingual certificate, a regional superintendent may grant a single two-year renewal of that certificate, provided that the individual furnishes evidence of enrollment in an approved teacher education program or of enrollment in coursework designed to qualify the holder for a standard certificate.
