There are three types of temporary licenses offered through the Vermont Department of Education; provisional, emergency and apprenticeship licenses.
Provisional and Emergency Licenses
Provisional and emergency licenses are temporary licenses designed to assist districts that have advertised and are unable to fill vacant positions with suitable licensed candidates. Use this link to view the appropriate section of the Vermont State Board Manual of Rules and Practices. NOTE: An educator cannot initiate an application for a provisional or emergency license; only a superintendent may do so.
- Superintendent Responsibilities Regarding Provisional Licenses (Added 1/21/09)
It is the responsibility of the superintendent to ensure that on the first day of any assignment of duties requiring licensure under these rules, each educator has a valid license, an appropriate endorsement, and any other applicable license or credential for the educator's assigned duties, and to ensure that the license and endorsement, as well as any other applicable licenses or credentials, are maintained throughout the assignment. Failure to do so may subject the superintendent to the discipline under provisions of Chapter 51 of Title 16. Use the link above to view additional information regarding provisional licenses.

An apprenticeship license is a three year temporary license issued to unlicensed educators employed in a Vermont technical center in a technical professional or trades and industry endorsement.
