Educator Licensure
The Regional Office of Education #26 serves the area teachers and administrators with all aspects of their licensure needs. Our office provides assistance with license applications, renewals/registrations, and adding endorsements and improvements on existing licenses.
Our office also provides assistance with the utilization of the Educator Licensure Information System (ELIS), which replaced the Educator Certification System (ECS) through the Illinois State Board of Education.
