Individuals interested in applying for a school administrator certificate who previously have held an administrator certificate may obtain an application at www.michigan.gov/mde
Individuals who have completed an administrator preparation program but never held an administrator certificate should contact the higher education institution where the program was completed and request that the institution make a recommendation to the MDE for certification.
The MDE has identified four different categories of administrators potentially impacted by the 2006 legislation allowing the MDE to issue administrator certificates on a voluntary basis. Click here to read more information about these categories.
