QTS now requires you to have the appropriate evidence mailed to them. It's more than 15 minutes on a computer filling in an online application. MA will not say that a provisional is a full certification, so you're stuck. It's better to knuckle down and push through two years of teaching in state than to make the jump before being fully certified.

PsyGuy, it's a different issue which is causing problems elsewhere (Like my life). Many US States require in-state teaching requirement to transition from a temporary or provisional certification to a professional license. Unless you have have the full professional license, you are not "Fully certificated" to teach. For that UK license, you need to be fully certified and I know of some schools that accept teachers on the provisional license but are in their right to release the teacher when the license lapses in 3 or 5 years. I can't find a state that can get me from their temporary certificate to the full license while teaching overseas. Has anyone done this? How? Please share!
