Teacher Education, Professional Development, and Licensing

Please note:  When an educator submits a complete and accurate renewal application before June 30th of the year in which his/her license expires, Wis. Stat. 227.51 (2) provides that the existing license does not expire until the DPI completes the processing of your renewal application.

Effective June 15th, 2017 WECAN will discontinue their online PDP service.  To learn more about this transition see WECAN PDP Transition.
