HB 1113 modifies Oklahoma's teacher certification rules for adjunct teachers in public schools. Adjunct teachers, defined as individuals with distinguished qualifications in their field, are not required to hold standard teaching certification when initially hired. However, after two years of full-time employment, they must begin the process to obtain standard, alternative placement, or emergency certification before starting their third year. This requirement applies specifically to full-time adjunct teachers in Oklahoma school districts who meet the two-year threshold.
