For those of you who don't really know me that well, I am a worrier. And I always seem to find something to worry about, even when there isn't really anything that I need to be worrying about. Case in point, teaching license renewal. I started worrying about this on Monday night and have been thinking about it ever since. I'm all freaked out because you have to get 125 clock hours in 4 different categories, plus 5 semester credits (which I think can count as part of your clock hours) and then some misc. amount, which I can't think of off the top of my head for my professional license. This all freaks me out because you have to go through this every five years, for your entire career.
That is, if you are not a Speech Pathologist. Yesterday, I found out that because I am a member of my professional organization and hold the National License associated with that, I am exempt from collecting the 125 clock hours. All I have to do is attend at least one workshop or seminar in each of the four areas, regardless of the hours, to accrue enough time to renew my license. That helps to make me feel better.
It seems like there is always something, doesn't it?
