ALSO-approved instructors: Meeting teaching and renewal course requirements
You can find your status period on your status wallet card, which is located under your last teaching entry. To maintain your status:
- Find at least two ‘teaching: ALSO course’ entries between your start and expiration dates.
- Find your ALSO instructor renewal course letter of participation between your start and expiration date.
Your status will renew three more years on the expiration date printed on your wallet card, if requirements are met.
Your status will expire if requirements are not met by your expiration date. Status life cycle begins again by attending an ALSO course and ALSO instructor course to regain status.
Read the ALSO status life cycle [NEED LINK] document to learn more.
