New Substitute Certificate Applicants Process

A substitute teaching license, valid for substitute teaching in grades PK‑12 in any county in Illinois, may be issued to individuals who hold a bachelor’s degree or higher from a regionally accredited institution of higher education.

• To apply, individuals may submit an application online in the Educator Licensure Information System (ELIS).
• A $100 fee will be assessed electronically when the application is submitted.
• After submitting their application, individuals should have an official transcript showing an awarded bachelor’s degree sent to ISBE.
• To be valid for teaching, a substitute license must be registered in ELIS after it is issued.
